WHO: Eliot Lear

     Eliot Lear has been a Consulting Engineer for Cisco Systems since
     February of 1998, primarily focusing on network management and quality
     of service. Prior to that he was Silicon Graphics' Internet Architect,
     responsible for design and deployment of Internet and Intranet
     connectivity, access and security solutions. He participated in
     several large scale corporate acquisitions. Eliot has participated in
     the IETF for ten years, and is the author of several Internet RFCs.


THE TOPIC: Name Spaces and the Next-Generation Net

     In the continuing efforts to support multi-homing and mobility on the
     once and future internet, many good questions have been raised. One of
     them is "Should there be an additional name space above layer 3?"

     The Name Space Research Group, headed by Eliot Lear, Steve Bellovin,
     and Steve Crocker, has been pursuing that question and are producing
     an RFC that will be released in a few months.

     Come and hear a preview of this work, and how it relates to work by
     other IETF working groups such as Routing Research Group (RRG) and
     Host Identity Payload (HIP).
