Hear, hear.
Technical issues notwithstanding, this issue can also be perceived as an
important marketing/positioning issue of RPR Vs existing solutions.

We have customers that find loosing packets in the transport side of the
network unacceptable. One of the reasons we hear is the "multi-tier"
environment, where the transport and the service side may be "logically"
separate and belong to different business entities. Another item to
consider is that RPR is competing with SONET for the data transport
infrastructure and SONET does not loose packets in transit.
