RFC1618       PPP over ISDN

We had a short discussion about this in pppext.

The gist was: The document is pretty bad (partly because things were murky in 1994, but also because it was written by Martians that had no space ship to take them to the ISDN planet), but some parts of it do describe what currently shipping, actively marketed products do (and should do) in this domain. Having done some ISDN work in the late 80s/early 90s, I all but volunteered during this discussion to do a DS version of the thing (probably by striking 80 % of the text and rewriting the rest). If this is what it takes to keep an active standards-track specification about IP over ISDN, I'll do that tiny amount of work.
Or we could leave it where it is.

Gruesse, Carsten
