Folks, folks, this is clearly a case where an amalgam of both old and new technologies is required. Consider the challenges solved by TCP. Lots of packets arriving potentially out of sequence (or not at all) reassembled into a coherent data stream. Much like the idea of multiple cards arriving one at a time into a hopper, yes? So all we need is to establish sequence numbers for cards, and maybe a time to live field? Is it too late to get this into IPv6? Jordan
