It seems to me that on the IP level the net has been in a technological paralysis for some time.

We can't get RED or IPv6 deployed, and and the IETF doesn't seem to get anything useful happen these days.

edit: anyone else remember when layer 3 had a bright future ahead of it, IPv6 and end-to-end IPSec (with keys in the DNS) were just around the corner...

uTP carries the bulk of all BitTorrent transfers at this point. This would seem to imply a certain level of success.
Too big to overhaul?
