Chair
hat off --
Inclusion of this information sounds good to
me.
Locale
of information does not matter to me as much.
As
mentioned in previous email, we may also want to include the 'why not
appropriate' in annex, for reader's information.

Ralph, why
should we be waiting until 5.3 (last page) to break this news (e.g., Class 1
isn't supported)? Can we move your text up to section 1, aptly titled
"Scope". Alternately, we could narrow down the very title of the
document.

Off and on I hear complaints that it
is not obvious why draft-ietf-ips-fcencapsulation-03.txt fails to list
all the possible Fibre Channel SOF and EOF characters in 5.3.
To
address this concern, I propose adding the following text at the end of
5.3.
Note: Some of the SOF and EOF characters defined
by Fibre Channel are not listed in Table 1 and Table 2
because the design an operating characteristics of an IP Network
make it inappropriate for transporting FC Frames containing those
SOF and/or EOF characters.
I proposed to make this addition
in a new draft that will be available in time for consideration in
Salt Lake.
Comment appreciated.
