Also with Steve Knowles when he was an AD, but I never wrote an I-D. I was more inclined toward trying to get an implementation. This was about 1994 if I remeber correctly. Also brought it up with IBM before they stpped development on the NSS but not for ATM, other bcast. Happens to be good stuff for ATM, SMDS, FR. Carriers switched service perople might hate it. :-) Curtis ps- maybe one of us will have better luck now. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
