Re: [bmwg] WG ADOPTION: draft-bhuvan-bmwg-of-controller-benchmarking (terms and meth)

["MORTON, ALFRED C (AL)" <[e-mail]>]

Hi Jacob, Thanks for your comment.

There may be a way to resolve your comment through better definitions.
However, when the draft was first introduced, one of my comments
(with which several people agreed) was to avoid making this 
Openflow-specific.  

We could say, "For the purposes of this memo,
SDN Controller is defined as..."
or
We could choose some name more specific to the role the 
controller performs "...in SDN"

I'll re-post part of the thread I'm referring to.

regards,
Al
