I've been approached regarding the use of the (claimed-to-be)
trademarked term bake-off. It would be helpful if somebody can provide
credible evidence that this term has been used within the technical
community for many years. (In case you didn't know,
http://www.bakeoff.com/ shows the non-technical use....)
It's used in RFC 1371, from October 1992. Of course, that RFC also
says:
The IAB/IETF are committed to a timely introduction of OSI into the
Internet.
Anyway -- I seem to recall seeing the term in "TCP/IP Protocol
Transition Handbook", from circa 193, but my copy isn't conveniently
accessible at the moment.
