moonv6 post from "Tony Hain" <ahain@cisco.com>
Jim,
I understand and agree with your intent to keep the infrastructure running. I recently chatted with a cable ISP, and they were looking for someplace to attach for some initial trials. They will not be ready until later this year, but I did suggest that Moonv6 was the appropriate infrastructure to attach to.
At the same time, the concept of phases allows people to focus on a specific set of tasks. What we should do is document a set of bootstrap phases that each new participant can walk through. This is not declaring the Moonv6 project has having phases, rather it is focusing each new participant on a set of tasks so they can come up to speed. This would also allow DoD to continue ramping up in focused efforts, with an overall document set as a reasonable output product of the Moonv6 project.
Tony
