I just scanned your document (and I apologise for not having thought
deeply about it). My first thought is whether you were planning on
developing specific solutions using your protocol, e.g. to the
distributed MARS problem space. Currently I'm looking at an SCSP
based solution - do you have an alternative? (See
draft-armitage-ion-mars-scsp-01.txt for a review of the problems
we face implementing a distributed MARS.)

(I'm crossing my fingers that you'll save me lots of work by
announcing a magical solution - or at least point out where I'm
over complicating things! :-)

cheers,
gja
