it seems my comments on the draft, actually comments from many ops directorate members, were too massive, so i have stashed them at <http://psg.com/~randy/udp-lite.txt> and want to compress it to the following this proposes somne serious changes to udp without sufficient documentation of the justification and needs, at least not sufficient to convince some ip old timers. it would be good if the document could give clear and detailed justification so that the ip purists and operators could understand why this is _really_ needed. randy
