Hi.

Thanks for the input.

How much of a discussion would you think we should have? We have had 
considerable discussion of the possibilities of off-path signaling at 
least among the authors of the NATFW NSLP, but it would be a major 
change to how GIST works.

I think we could make a 'passing mention' but going into too much detail 
is probably out of scope. The question is how elastic is extensibility?
