Re: [Bier] Request for WG Adoption//FW: New Version Notification for draft-xie-bier-ipv6-encapsulation-08.txt

[Greg Shepherd <[e-mail]>]

Geng,

Thanks for the new version. Please leave all adoption calls on the list to
the Chairs. Additionally, it doesn't require adoption for participants to
read and comment. And any call for adoption should come after there has
been adequate time for the group to read and evaluate. But more
importantly, you and I spoke about your draft getting adequate time for
discussion at the upcoming WG meeting. This will give you yet another
attempt to build support and make your case for adoption to the group.
Please stay focused on your upcoming presentation.

Thanks,
Shep,
(Chairs)
