RE: evaluation draft

["Mason, David" <David_Mason@xxxxxxx>]

This must be why the NAT-traversal IDs weren't submitted under the IPSRA WG
even though they are a direct requirement (sections 2.5, 3.2.5, 3.3.5,
3.4.5, 3.6.5, 4 of IPSRA requirements ID).

Can someone in charge please explain the criteria of why it's ok to change
IKE/IPsec for some new features and not others?

Any discussion of the charter is out of scope.

Scott pointed out in an earlier message that we are all intelligent 
adults. Why, then, do many of us keep forgetting what has happened in 
the recent past? We have been told repeatedly that the protocol that 
comes from the WG may not change IKE. Many of us have replied "but we 
think that a change to IKE is a better solution". The response from 
the Area Directors has been unequivocal: no changing IKE, no changing 
the charter.
