[Rsvp] FYI: Request for registration of new RSVP Class

[Bob Braden]

In my role as "RSVP expert" for the IANA, I see a constant stream of
amazingly complex point solutions to particularly problems using
the RSVP framework.  Here is the latest example.  Take a look and
see what you think...is this still RSVP?

Thanks,

Bob Braden

Description :

3GPP2 (www.3GPP2.org) decided to use RSVP as a signaling mechanism for
