Hi Vijay,

The current writeup is perfectly fine with me.
Thanks,

>>1. Summary.
>>
>>Vijay K. Gurbani is the document shepherd for draft-alto-deployments
>>draft.
>>Spencer Dawkins was the responsible AD throughout the last few versions
>>of the draft, however, that benefit transferred to Mirja Kuhlewind
>>around IETF 95 (Buenos Aires).
>>
>>The document itself has a long and varied history, having started life
>>off as a -00 document targeted to the ALTO WG as an individual
>>(original authors:
>>Martin Stiemerling and Sebsatian Kiesel, March 1, 2010).  It
>>transitioned to a WG document in February 2011 with the original two
>>authors and continued on revision trajectory until version -04 when new
>>authors were added.
>>
>>The document distills and prescribes recommendations for network
>>administrators and application designers planning to deploy ALTO,
>>including recommendations on how to generate the ALTO map information
>>and known limitations of the ALTO protocol (rfc7285).  Furthermore, the
>>document provides guidance for the use of ALTO in diverse environments,
>>including P2P traffic optimization, CDN considerations, application
>>guidance in VPNs, to name a few examples.
>>
>>The working group is targeting this document as an Informational, which
>>is the appropriate track the document should be on based on the nature
>>of its prescriptions and recommendations.  The document does not
>>introduce any new protocol elements, nor does it subvert --- positively
>>or negatively --- the usage of the protocol in any given particular
>>environment (i.e., CDNs, VPNs, or P2P environments).
>>
>>2. Review and Consensus.
>>
>>The draft has consensus from the WG and has been well-reviewed.  There
>>have been two WGLCs for this draft: Version -11 of the draft was last-
>>called between the time period of April 28, 2015 to May 17, 2015.
>>During this period, the draft was reviewed in detail by Wendy Roome.
>>Wendy found several minor issues and nits and a couple of major issues,
>>all of which were readily addressed in version -12 (June 2015).
>>
>>Pursuant to an ALTO virtual meeting held on October 27, 2015, it became
>>apparent that draft-siedel-alto-map-calculation could inform draft-
>>ietf-alto-deployments.  The authors of the two drafts were requested to
>>make a determination whether portions of the former could be included
>>in the latter.  By November 2015, a determination was made that
>>relevant portions from the map-calculation draft could be put into the
>>deployment-considerations draft.  The issue at hand after this was done
>>was whether the changes percolated widely enough to have a second WGLC.
>>By Jan 2016, it was decided that a second WGLC was likely, and thus a
>>second one was issued that ended on February 3, 2016.  The second WGLC
>>was reviewed by Sabine Randriamasy, resulting in version -14 that
>>addressed her review.
>>
>>In summary, the deployment draft has had excellent support from the
>>working group, has been reviewed on multiple occasions by various
>>members of the working group and has been last-called twice to account
>>for the expanded role it took on as the working group became aware of
>>the growing deployment of the ALTO protocol.
>>
>>3. Intellectual Property.
>>
>>The shepherd confirms that each author has stated to him (and ALTO
>>co-chairs)
>>their direct, personal knowledge that the authors are not aware of any
>>IPR related to this document.
>>
>>To the best of the shepherd's knoweldge, there has not been any
>>discussions on IPR related to this document on the ALTO WG mailing
>>list.
>>
>>4. Other Points.
