just to flog this issue mercilessly:
Since "we" (the IETF community) have no control over rates of adoption
by the Internet product and services community, any attempt to write a
schedule for adoption will be wrong. Certainly the IETF community's
track record at predicting adoption rate has always been wrong.
The one exception is the assumption that adoption will take much
longer than we assume...
