It should be noted that in these\ncases, this does not make the protocols any less attractive as\npotential components for system implementation.)\n\n\u003e It also doesn't appear to address ~any of the the targeted items here.\n\u003e Is there another draft I should be looking for which has more overlap\n\u003e with the discussion here?\n\nAs outlined in the previous post:\n  - Internet Financial EXchange (IFEX). A proposal under development\nthat facilitates the negotiation of financial transactions between\ninternet-based financial endpoints. (The area we would love your\ninput) http://www.ifex-project.org/our-proposals/ifex\n\nAs well as the information linked to above, significant but not\nparticularly well grounded discussions have occurred regarding the\nIFEX-based paradigm for settlement versus some other proposed\nparadigms, in particular Ripple (as it appeared some months ago),\nwhich can be read here:\nhttps://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/rippleusers/v4bEBZZVEsA[1-25]\n\nKind regards and with the hopes of combining our efforts as a joint\nproposal that can benefit other currencies/commodities and settlement\nsystems as well as Bitcoin,\nWalter Stanish\nSkype:walter.stanish"}
