Except when the IETF is not timely. In a number of cases, people fail
to update implementations to protocols that are long lived because
they prefer to wait until the protocol is nearly complete. I have this
comment from many people (from different organizations) for a number
of protocols such as MIPv6 and Diameter, for example. Without making much
effort, I could find a bunch of other examples.
