Subject: Is this still RSVP?

I would like to call the Working Group's attention to:

	http://www.packetcable.com/specs/pkt-sp-dqos-I01-991201.pdf

and pose the questions: is this still RSVP, modified to be
bi-directional?  Is this compatible with the other RSVP extensions,
including Refresh Reduction?  Does anyone care?

This work has been developed by a commercial consortium outside
the IETF process (as I understand it).  They have asked IANA for
ten new object types to support this spec, and of course IANA
will assign them.
