> DiffServ and MPLS may or may not be a good thing but if a user is unable to
> configure and control their network end to end then the control plane is
> moving into the network. Much of the network is dark to users due to secret
> or at best opaque peering and transit relationships.
>
> For that reason alone users are turning to regulators to address the
> balance.
>
> In light of this I do think it worth asking if Google is still a typical
> user? and if the IETF might extend the control plane of its protocols to the
> edge?
