I was completely underwhelmed by the feedback on these, but since I'm
going to be offline more often than not over the next two weeks, I went
ahead and submitted these to the I-D editor. They should show up in the
repository early next week. I have also posted them under
http://www.oceana.com/ftp/drafts
The only other change that I added is an outstanding issue to STREAMING
asking whether or not there are any security issues that need to be
discussed. For instance, can a DoS attack be launched on a
non-streaming server by bombarding it with TAKETHIS?
