IMHO IOS should be completely modular. ie SNMP/QOS/BGP etc should be a
loadable module etc. In the event of you patching a service specific
bug, you'd only upload the new modules and insmod them. I'd be very
happy if the Cisco router fairy would write and backport such an IOS.
That should end this idiotic router rebooting nonsense that the internet
is plagued with, for the most part.

If I remember correctly, This Exactly where Cisco has said they are
going...

With the IOS XR Just as the beginning..

Does anyone else remember this?
