Key problem, however, seems to be a lack of interest in actually deploying

Huge need, IMHO (from propositions I made to the ITU and I would like to
insert into mad-WG-ltru lack of thinking), but not with the adopted
architecture. This is why I would propose that before closing the shop with
think about "ROPES", reverse OPES where instead of being seen as a
supported smart middle-box, we would consider a smart network with shims
inserted on the path, leadership being to the server - shims being
potentially shared - not to what you want to call OPES.
