TCP/IP via “avian carriers”

January 16th, 2009 Justin James Leave a comment Go to comments

I’ve been aware of the

“TCP/IP over avian carriers” RFC for some time now. Today, I submitted a comment on it. I was quite concerned that spec was far too specific regarding the tape (specifically, duct tape) used to attach the datagrams, particularly since the spec is otherwise rather vague (such as the type of bird to be used). Hopefully, this critical flaw can be corrected, and the spec can gain widespread acceptance.

    What about TCP/IP over a bottle tossed in to the ocean? I guess we can tweak the timeout to be 5 years.
