Well, gosh and golly gee, I wrote an "ISAKMP considered harmful" about
6 years ago, and the IESG -- for the first time in its history --
ordered it removed from the internet-drafts repository (saying the
IETF wouldn't publish anything critical of the IETF process).

It was published as a Usenix ";login:" feature article instead....

I suspect Bob and I could have something in days!
