	RFC 2549 - IP over Avian Carriers with Quality of Service
		One major benefit to using Avian Carriers is that this is the only networking technology that earns frequent flyer miles, plus the Concorde and First classes of service earn 50% bonus miles per packet.
		One implementation strategy is for a bar-code reader to scan each carrier as it enters the router and then enqueue it in the proper queue, gated to prevent exit until the proper time.
		Carriers may be lost if they are based on a tree as it is being pruned.

	Carrier pigeon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A carrier pigeon is a breed of pigeon (specifically a domesticated Rock Pigeon, Columba livia) that has wattles, a nearly vertical stature, and that may once have been used to carry messages.
		The carrier pigeons of today are not good flyers; they are instead kept as an ornamental or fancy breed, valued for their unusual appearance.
		Homing pigeons, not carrier pigeons, were used to carry messages in World War I and World War II and are nowadays used for pigeon racing.

	IP over Avian Carriers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		IP over Avian Carriers or RFC 1149 is a humorous Request for Comments document issued by the Internet Engineering Task Force.
		With a 55% packet loss, and a response time ranging from 3000 to over 6000 seconds, Carrier Pigeons seem unlikely to be adopted more widely as a transport method on the Internet.
		For example, over a 30 mile distance a single pigeon may be able to carry tens of gigabytes of data in around an hour, comparing very favourably to current ADSL standards.

		A few days ago, a unique experiment took place near the Sea of Galilee, attempting to confront two technologies: ADSL vs. pigeons’ enabled wireless technology.
		During the experiment, 3 pigeons carried 4 GB (gigabytes) achieving what apparantly looks as pigeons’ world record in data transfer.
		Of course, as the article explains, while ADSL may be slower it has the advantage that it doesn’t discharge on your head.

		Two of the most famous April 1 RFCs were written in the 1990s by David Waitzman, a senior software engineer with BBN Technologies who says each of the documents took less than a day to write.
		In RFC 1149, Waitzman describes a technique for how IP packets can be transmitted via pigeon carriers.
		Waitzman followed up in 1999 with RFC 2549 entitled "IP Over Avian Carriers with Quality of Service." This document discusses the pros and cons of having ostriches, robins, hawks, penguins and other birds serve as carriers of IP packets.

		The carrier added a spoof Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) RFC (request for comment) to the documents, and asked vendors whether they supported it.
		The RFC in question -- RFC 2549 “IP over Avian Carriers with Quality of Service” -- is an update of RFC 1149, which describes the use of carrier pigeons in technical jargon.
