Nick,

Absolutely, if your plant is in Europe or one of the other areas (lots of
Africa and the middle East is like that) that adopted EuroDOCSIS I'd agree
wholeheartedly.  I didn't see Colton say where they're located, but all
North America is the US flavor so that's what I assume on NANOG.

That being said, the best thing that seldom gets mentioned about D3.1 is
getting us to unified channelization.

as you say, eurodocsis works well in europe.

3.1 will be a major improvement when it materialises.
