Adrian:

IDR also has a next-hop encapsulation draft pending adoption.   May I
suggest that perhaps the BESS/IDR chairs should collaborate on the tunnel
drafts?

Why transform draft-xu-softwire-encaps-udp to draft-xu-bess-encaps-udp

Just for clarity on this point:

I suggested that BESS was the right place to discuss whether and how to use
BGP to indicate tunnel types.

I also observed that a code point already exists in the BGP Tunnel
Encapsulation Attribute Tunnel Types registry at
http://www.iana.org/assignments/bgp-parameters/bgp-parameters.xhtml#tunnel-t
ypes

Therefore the debate the WG needs to have (perhaps before debating adoption
of this document) is:

- whether the existing code point is enough for the purpose of identifying
  MPLS-in-UDP tunnels or whether more work is needed
- whether a foo-in-UDP tunnel type should be used instead with sub-TLVs
  to identify the different cases of foo.
