    Somewhat off-topic: what a cool publication, editor, journalists etc. to put out an article like this. And about an application protocol for IP, no less! Researched and with some storytelling woven in. From the About Us page:

    MinnPost is an independent, nonprofit newsroom that produces thoughtful, in-depth journalism about civic and cultural affairs impacting Minnesota.
