A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories.


         Title           : Analysis of IDR requirements and History
         Author(s)       : A. Doria, E. Davies
         Filename        : draft-irtf-routing-history-02.txt
         Pages           : 43
         Date            : 2005-10-26

This document analyses the current state of IDR routing with respect
to RFC1026 and other IDR requirements and design efforts. It is the
    companion document to "Requirements for Inter-Domain Routing"
[I-D.irtf-routing-reqs], which is a discussion of requirements for
    the future routing architecture and future routing protocols.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-irtf-routing-history-02.txt


This document still continues to insist that rfc1126 "outlined a set
of requirements that were to guide the development of BGP". As we
disccused before (see e-mail exchange aroung Aug 2004), this is
incorrect. To correctly reflect the history please replace the
current text with the following:

While some people expected a set of requirements outlined in RFC1126
    to guide the development of BGP, in reality the development of BGP
    happened completely independently of RFC1126. In other words, from
the point of view of the development of BGP, RFC1126 turned out to be
    totally irrelevant.

Yakov.
