Re: Interesting GoogleTalk about Named Content Networks

Thanks. I saw this talk a few years ago (3 or 4) and found it very interesting.
Looking at it one needs to I think both not to try to re-invent TCP/IP as Van
Jacobson explains, but also keep a mind open about how much of this can in fact 
be done with HTTP. He seems to suggest the future should be a very peer to peer 
protocol, but the web is peer 2 peer. (Servers could query each other via proxy 
interfaces for example). Also sometimes connection orientation is completely ok, such as
when one is getting information that is to be personalised, and it does not need
to be broadcast.  One would somehow wish there to have something that ties neatly
into HTTP so that a client that is thinking connection oriented could use HTTP
to get the document at its canonical location, and other servers could get them by
asking around. One would need a system like that to bootstrap the system with
some chance of it taking on. RDF of course works great at this level because
it can be applied to extensions of HTTP without the semantics suffering. One could
have linked data just as well in such a network too. The web does not depend on 
HTTP (or https). We're just pragmatically working with what is widely deployed and
very widely understood.
