I will review some recent progress in understanding the high energy limit of QCD. The low x evolution kernels, traditionally used to address DIS phenomenology, are manifestly asymmetric in their treatment of target and projectile. Hadron-hadron collisions require a restoration of this symmetry. A crucial step in this direction is a derivation of an evolution kernel (Hamiltonian of the Reggeon Field Theory) which would include Pomeron loops.
