FW: [MLB-WIRELESS] IP addressing, OSPF and a .plan

[Jason Brice]

Yeah sorry, I didnt want to suggest that this was a "job for the
professionals" or anything :) It would be a great idea to get everyone
who is interested contributing. I was just pushing the idea of a group
based, structured approach.

I'm having fun learning about how all this is put together and would be 
a little disapointed if EXPERIENCE was a pre requisite for contributing 
to this. Perhaps a way to do this would be via an RFC on the wiki, that 
way everyone interested could see the process that goes into the design 
and comment appropriately. I think it's a better idea for people to 
volunteer/take it on themselves to do things. There's not a lot of 
point in electing anyone as there's nothing to elect people to.

So... in short, if you want to work on addressing, gather some like 
minded people in the group and do it, putting as much as you can up on 
the wiki and post to the list when appropriate. If it's good work then 
people will use it.

I think working groups are a good idea, someone comes up with an idea, 
asks around for people who are interested who want to contribute. If 
there are people with experience who can contribute then great, but 
that shouldn't stop us n00bs (/me raises hand) from contributing what 
we can.

That's my 2c, apologies if I've trod on toes.
