However, mindset changes typically happen at engineering levels first (if we are comfy we push them) and if business models and $$ can be made are learned by the VP's we all care about. Like David said tho - if we can make it work from a policy standpoint and use our engineering skills to protect us from the idiots (I'm sure most of us in our engineering careers have been one at some point) then something like TRIP sounds very interesting to me. </div>
<div><br></div><div>BGP is solid - but the engineers who configure it and global nature of errors are what make people who care about phone calls shy away from it. Those are some of the problems we'd need to address to reach a phone via some global directory. Have to be able to trust it and the path. The TRIP RFC was implemented back in 2002 and perhaps was ahead of it's time like so many other .com's and it's time to look at it again</div>
