Re: IETF-96 session: Agenda requests and Remote Participation

Hi Maciek,

This is an interesting proposal, so I'd like to make a few
suggestions to focus on what would be most relevant to BMWG
as we develop new / revise our RFCs to more accurately measure
virtual internetworking functions:

Procedures you and your team used when measuring classic
benchmarks like Throughput and Latency: what measurement problems
did you encounter and how did you resolve them?
What did you try that didn't work?

What new black-box benchmarks and other metrics did you find
to be relevant, and why?

If you give us a brief background on CSIT 
(Continuous System Integration and Testing) in FD.io
and try to answer the questions above, your presentation
would be well-worth our meeting time (and introduce you
to many participants who can pursue more details with
you after our session).

BMWG: any other questions, comments, agenda bashes?
