Subject: Re: [cti] CTI TC Adoption and Interoperability SCs
Hi Trey, I'm not sure this dialogue is relevant to this list. Something is getting lost in translation here. It seems unfair to be excising a quote from a 1989 RFC about much of anything concerning the DARPA Internet when the design purpose was to support the NREN, not large-scale public infrastructure - which was being attempted over in the OSI Internet venues. I have otherwise no quibble with Thompson's contemporary draft. With that said, Jon's observations in Sec. 1.2.2 apart from the quote -about assuming all code is flawed - is rather interesting if not prescient, e.g., In general, it is best to assume that the network is filled with malevolent entities that will send in packets designed to have the worst possible effect. This assumption will lead to suitable protective design, The statement could well be a CTI mantra. -tony On 2015-07-09 09:05 AM, Trey Darley wrote:
Um, Tony, did you take the time to read the RFC draft I posted? It's dated March 9, 2015. I realize that things do move quickly but I would hardly qualify that as an artifact from a bygone era. On the contrary, I would say that it deprecates RFC1122, § 1.2.2.
