  And how many raised their hands when asked if they read the list? Or been
to an IPsec meeting?

  My marketing people in San Jose were after us to bus down engineers from
HQ (in Ottawa, two hours from Montreal) to help "stack" the meeting. I won't
say which side they wanted support for. But, they had "heard" that both
Sun and Cisco were stacking the meeting. I think the chairs were well aware
of this. I also won't say what I told my marketing people.

  I agree that we can find some common ground. I see replacing key managers
on things like Win95 platforms and Macs as being relatively easy. You'll
notice how silent Microsoft is. I'd prefer the remained silent and just 
provided
something on which others to build (I know this is counter to what they
traditionally do. But they didn't traditionally provide people to help chair 
IETF working groups either...)
