Re: Comments on draft-sun-handle-system-11

Russ,
	I really appreciate all the careful review you've given this.  May
I ask you, though, not to hold the document on this issue?  This has been
on the IESG plate for a very long time, and it is now very clearly marked
as a non-IETF view of the world.  Though I'm sure we could continue
the dialog on these with the authors, I would really appreciate us having
that once the documents are published.
				regards,
					Ted
