Hi,I would also like to cast my opinion for "a" as a starting point. I think that the systems (hosts, services, storage, etc.) will need to be aware of how the network is virtualized so they can participate, but let's start by coming to grips with the network aspect.

Aaron and I exchanged some ideas a month ago, and Aaron asked for people to voice their position above then. I haven't heard any discussion. In order for this group to move forward, we need to decide what our focus is. So, to that end, I'll summarize the current views: a) virtualization of networks Joe b) virtualization of systems, incl. networks, hosts, services, storage, sensors/actuators Aaron Can everyone on this list please try to post a short not indicating your view of where this group should focus ASAP, no later than Friday Oct 23. That should help us gauge how to proceed.
