Internets of Interest: 20^th Oct

Collection of use­ful, rel­ev­ant or inane places on the the Internets for 20^th Oct:

• HP ProCurve — CTO Talk with Paul Congdon — I’m not sure that boast­ing of 12 years on the IEEE 802.1 com­mit­tee is a worth­while accom­plish­ment. I tend to the view that that the IEEE is worst pos­sible stand­ards body for stew­ard­ship of Ethernet and they can’t make up their minds about any­thing. 

For example, LLDP took years to get done, and 802.11 for wire­less eth­er­net is a com­plete debacle. The new DCB stand­ards are now 1 year behind the ori­ginal prom­ise, and get­ting fur­ther and fur­ther out. 

Oh, and hav­ing this guy around on the HP ProCurve team is going to make that a bet­ter product.

yeah, riiiiiiiight.
