I can't get to OK proxy to get WUs, but then again, I can't get anywhere to get WUs.
I think what may happen, or at least it appears this way to me, correct me, Queue gurus if I am wrong:
You connect to OKs proxy to get a WU.
If you have a WU in your queue, you get a WU.
If you don't, OKs proxy, or any other proxy, sends it as a pass-through request up stream.
Once that pass-through request gets to Berkely, it is stuck.
