[sr-dev] IETF - pro and con

[Olle E. Johansson]

There's been a lot of virtual slander of the work in the IETF on this  
list lately...

I keep wondering, why doesn't people like us start working more in the  
IETF and change stuff? Are we not patience enough, are we not  
brilliant enough?

For myself I can't spend much time on it, since it doesn't generate  
any immediate revenue. There's a lot of stuff I could do, but at the  
end of the month, I would have no salary that pays for food... It's  
quite simple.

Which means that the result in the IETF is far away from reality and  
that we reach further separation between IETF SIP and practical  
implementations, which is BAD for the overall community.
