Phil,
You seem to be confusing the name of a protocol, and your apparent
fondness for it, with the details that define that protocol. I don't
recall your participation in IPsec WG activities during the time that
the SKIP vs. IKE war took place, so perhaps your understanding of the
history here is not so precise.
