yes, sorry I should have been more open ... i do co-chair (with sandy
murphy) the sidr-wg at the IETF.

CPU + RAM both parts of the vector matter. (but you knew this)
Some of the interesting data would, I think, be good for ops folks to
see more openly, things that may actually affect their purchasing and
design decisions even! Danny's had some good presentation material
about changes in spec/implementations that have altered drastically
the update load on devices in actual networks.

yes (as the co-chair)
yes (as the OP... more input/thought/discussion)
and looking at the:
<https://www.arin.net/about_us/bot/index.html>
it looks like the BoT is due to have a meeting either this week or
next? (they seem to always have one in the first week or two of the
year?) so again speak up here AND perhaps send a note the BoT or your
ARIN Rep's way "now".
