Re: Congratulations -- Re: RFC 5971 on GIST: General Internet Signalling Transport

I'd like to also congratulate all people involved in the making of the 
NSIS technology.

And note that there are more RFCs to come soon, all except one are just 
waiting for the RFC Editor to finish the editing. And the last document 
of the WG (NSLP-level authorization) is also quite near final approval 
by the IESG.

regards,
Jukka
