Oh, the transport area people *are* in their high gear.
Their frantic movements may just seem static to you as they operate on =
more drawn-out time scales.
(The last transport protocol I worked on became standards-track 16 years =

At this IETF, there will be a =93Transport Services=94 BOF to help find =
out what exactly the services are that a new transport protocol should =
provide to the applications.  Research platforms such as QUIC, tcpcrypt, =
MINION etc. are very much in the focus of attention.

This time, it would be nice if the operations people got to have a say =
early on in what gets standardized.
(Just be careful not to try to =93fight yesterday=92s war=94.)
