WG last call on Sampling and Filtering Techniques until March 12

[Juergen Quittek <quittek@netlab.nec.de>]

Dear all,

Tanja has submitted a new version of our document on Sampling and 
Filtering Techniques for IP Packet Selection.  Please find it at
<http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-psamp-sample-tech-06.txt>.

The document in mature enough for entering WG last call.
The call will end on March 12.  This allows us bringing up and
discussing comments and issues also at our session in Minneapolis.

Please read the document carefully and comment on it.

PLEASE ALSO COMMENT IF YOU THINK THE DOCUMENT IS FINE.
Positive feedback is as welcome as comment on technical flaws and 
editorial nits.

There is one open technical issue left that we should continue 
discussing and try to close during last call.  The document describes 
the need to support hash functions for packet selection and for 
packet digest.  We agreed already, that for each of them one hash 
function should be mandatory to implement.  Currently it is IPSX 
for packet selection and CRC32 for packet digest.

However, a discussion recently started on this list considered 
replacing both (as mandatory to implement) by the BOB hash function.
We have not reached consensus on this issue.

Thanks,

    Juergen
