Regarding the "To IETF or not to IETF..." issue, Ascom Timeplex
is in favor of option 2 (Post AIW DLSw closed pages as an informational
RFC).

Our reasons for this decision have already been listed by other
responses to this issue.  Our primary concern is that our customer's
do not give added weight to an IETF "RFC Standard" designation so it
is not worth the added delay to the standards process (perhaps three
to six months).
