OSI Bash -- April 1993 ---------------------- Who was responsible for this quote? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ... I'd like to use it somewhere and I'd like to be able to properly attribute it correctly...: "OSI: Same day service in a nanosecond world" -- Simon Hackett ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Van Jacobsen. T-shirt he produced for an Interop, a few years ago. Not sure what the correct citation format is, to reference a t-shirt. -- Dave Crocker ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Be careful how you use it. These days there are OSI stacks with the same or better performance than TCP :-) -- Eva Kuiper ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Maybe so. Would you care to name them? -- Steinar Haug ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Can we *please* not start this on the IETF list again? -- John C Klensin ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Before this gets too far along, maybe we should move this discussion off the "ietf" list... And onto, say, "/dev/null"? :-) -- Frank T Solensky ---------------------------------------------------------------------- BTW, this weekly-based Acronym Serial Notation number 1 (or ASN.1) system was chosen since we've been hearing such great things about seven layer models on this list recently.... [* Okay, okay! I'll stop. But they started it!!! :-) *] -- Peter Deutsch ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You know, it's too bad reality doesn't have a Fast-Forward button, or I'd sure as hell press it. Presumably, in 10 years, one protocol or the other will have clearly won, and we will all be spared any more of this constant bickering and whining. Too bad we have to suffer through the interim, though..... hibernation, anyone? -- Noel Chiappa ----------------------------------------------------------------------
