Re: FCencap: Missing SOF/EOF characters

[Ralph Weber <ralphoweber@compuserve.com>]

I would be willing to change the first paragraph of the scope from:

  "This document describes common mechanisms for the transport
  of Fibre Channel frames over an IP network, including the
  encapsulation format and a mechanism for enforcing the Fibre
  Channel frame lifetime limits."

to:

  "This document describes common mechanisms for the transport
  of Fibre Channel frames over an IP network within the limitations
  of service provided by an IP network. The topics described in
  this document include the encapsulation format and a mechanism
  for enforcing the Fibre Channel frame lifetime limits."

I am NOT willing to discuss Fibre Channel Classes in the draft
because to do so would require adding a definition of the term.
Fibre Channel Classes are not discussed in the draft as it is
currently written.
