Re: My comments to the press about RFC 2474

You can read AT&T's letter to the FCC here: http://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/ecfs/document/view?id=7020910396

I think you'll find that the phrases you quote below are not in the letter, so it's not clear that your comments are in any way relevant to the issue under discussion, Ted.

There are many things I'd want, starting with a $10 million dollars in my bank 
account.  I think we've all heard want you want.  The fact that you want 
something doesn't mean that you (or I) should automatically get it.

I find myself in agreement with Russ and Brian; I think his statements are fine 
on the face of it.

I find AT&T's statements that "paid prioritization of Internet traffic... is already a common 
practice of Web management" to be very misleading (certainly not on the wired internet, and it's 
not done at the Web layer), and that prefixes their claim, "... and consistent with protocols set 
with the IETF."

I, personally, don't think we need to do anything beyond what Russ has already 
done, and I support his actions.
