I don't think that there's a closed-form answer for that.  We have a history
of getting some things right and some things wrong.  It depends.  


|A related note: I found the IAB draft " What Makes For a Successful  
|Protocol?" (http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-iab-protocol-success-04)  
|quite informative.  Some of the initial success factors listed in the  
|draft are "Positive Net Value (Meet a Real Need)" and "Incremental  
|Deployability".


Exactly.
