*Something* has to be the underlying protocol -- why not
ATM? As you say, it provides QoS -- so the IP hardware
doesn't have to do all the work. Does this denegrate
IP in any way? Not hardly. Because it's IP that the
applications see.

Dan, doesn't assigning the QoS functions to ATM obviate the need for those functions to be carried in IP? If so, application interoperability in a heterogeneous environment like the public internet would depend on ATM interoperability. This seems to me to "denegrate" IP's major advantage in such environments.
