Hi all,
As we've discussed, RRG aims to converge on a single recommended
solution for a scalable routing and addressing architecture over the
next year. Towards that end, we would like to ask the backers of the
various proposals to prepare some documents to aid in our comparison
and discussions of proposals.
1) Conceptual Summary
This document should summarize the entire proposal at a conceptual
level, and explain the fundamental ideas behind the proposal. It is
important that the document clearly identify whether the proposal is
a complete solution to a scalable routing architecture, or one
function in a complete solution. In the latter case, it should also
identify the other functions of the solution the proposal depends on,
and give a clear description of the interface to these other functions.
2) Analysis
This document should compare the proposal against the RADIR problem
statement and the design goals draft.
Each of the above two documents should be 4 pages or less, including
all the tables and figures if any, but excluding the reference list,
with font size 11pt or larger, and 1 inch margin on each side. A
proposal may provide a combined document that encompasses both of
these with a total length of 8 pages or less.
Finished documents should be added to the RRG wiki page under
"Proposal Summaries" whenever they are ready, but should be no later
than the Internet draft -00 deadline for Philadelphia, which is Feb
18., 22:00 UTC, to leave adequate time for discussions before our
next meeting.
Note that this request for documenting the conceptual summary and
analysis is only the first step towards systematic comparisons of
various proposals. Our final design recommendation will need
substantially more work to aid the evaluation process, such as the
performance evaluation and incremental deployment/migration
strategies. We encourage people to start working on these issues
early; they should also be documented in due time.
Regards,
Tony and Lixia
