The NSIS interop was co-located with IPFIX/NetFlow9 & NetConf, as can be
found at: http://www.ist-mome.org/events/interop/

The IPFIX interop resulted in a 30 min presentation/discussion during
the wg meeting and also solved quite a number of ambigues issues and
uncovered some things that many people might do wrong while making the
implementation. IPFIX is not in last call yet either, but having this
interop for sure improved the quality of the document a lot.

IMHO "Running Code" is a good thing, doing an interop before going to
last-call is even better. Thus, as mailed before, 2 seperate
interoperating implementations would be a good thing to have, not only
to take care of all the ambiguities, it also makes sure that the
document will actually be used and is not yet-another-paper...
