I do not understand this rationale.  Could you please elaborate?

Are you saying that the reason we are not using ubiquitous LQM is
because Cisco decided as a company policy not to interoperate with other

BTW, I have never worked for Morning Star in any paid capacity; or I'd
be a millionare today :-).  I just have an email address there, as I do
at several other sites, both commercial and non-commercial.
