How about a bullet about routing, like "(n) improve routing by adaptively
tunnelling packets through higher-performance paths", or something like
that?

I don't know his style well enough to recommend inviting him or anything,
but it seems that Sean O'Malley (from Network Appliance) would be an
industrial person who might be good to invite, since he worked on Vegas
and is working on web caches (and file servers) now. I think Netapp is
looking for ways to increase it's profile in the research community.

i think the url should be (correct me if i'm wrong on this, Geoff):

http://www.cs.washington.edu/research/networking/detour

I don't have an account that i can use to hack the web page yet (I asked
for one last week, so it may be a few days). So i'll circulate a draft
tonight that Geoff can post if he like it well enough.
