RE: QoS attributes

["Joel M. Halpern" <joel@stevecrocker.com>]

This presume a very simple consortium model.  At the very least I would 
expect hot spot operators to be planning to participate in multiple 
consortia, so as to offer service to the widest range of customers.  Those 
distinct consortia are not likely to have the same collections of QoS sets.
