Re: Open IP - you have to have portable, scalable (sp?) and full set of IP Routing protocols including routing policies. What Nortel has are fragments of that where one part is portable, another is scalable and almost full. Integrating these two isn't a easy task. Whole Open IP initiative reminds me of Bay's port of its OSPF into MS Steelhead (NT).
Re: Versalar - you need more than just one product, you need BFR. So far Nortel has none. Without BFR Versalar doesn't have that much value. And products from former stratups like Torrent and RedStone offer greater density of ports. I'd say that Nortel is not a contender for Internet core unless it buys Juniper. ;-)
