	Let the consequenses be what they may. Does our working group have the
will to include IPSRA requirements into second generation IKE directly?
I hope so.

second generation IKE debate is new enough that we could get fielded
implementations of PIC+IKEv1 which could inform our development of
second generation IKE protocols).
