Thus spake Ed
"the platform may become doomed before it matures."
It has had years to mature... I believe it was actually further along and more mature when USR had it. I mean OSPF is just now being released. Other platforms have had OSPF for over 2 years. From what I understand before 3com took over many things were slated to be done but dropped.
In all fairness...OSPF was on the engineering todo list for quite some time at USR before they got bought by 3Com...the word I received was that the engineers kept pulling it off because "it was too hard". I suspect 3Com had enough resources to put OSPF in the thing when USR just didn't have enough resources (read, number of engineers) to do that and still keep the rest of the development up on the platform. Having said that though...I agree...I do think the maturity of the TC platform is behind what it could be...it is maturing...but I think it could do so at a much faster pace. -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm@iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456 - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.
