Hay your the one who asked for opinions. Sorry you didn't like mine.  

Lou

Btw the fundamental agreement that I was refering to was that ospf would be one of the solutions progressed in l1vpn - work that you and I did together!

>I do like to hear comments from other people.

IMO this discussion (OSPF and BGP applicability and limitations wrt
L1VPNs) was sufficiently covered in the l1vpn WG, and nothing being
said now changes the fundamental arguments or conclusions of that discussion.

PS  PLEASE feel free to drop me from the to/cc line of this thread!


Although multi-instance OSPF was enthusiastically discussed and is ongoing work in OSPF WG, it was never discussed in the L1VPN context. Because it potentially can improve the saclability properties of the L1VPN OSPF solution IMO it defenitely deserves more discussions. I am very interested in the discussion and hope others too. You sound like want to shut it down. It is my understanding that anyone can start a discussion in IETF WG, and the discussion can be closed:
a) by a WG chair;
b) because it is out of WG's charter;
c) it distracts WG from more important things.

I don't see much going on in the L1VPN WG, the discussion is surely within the L1VPN WG charter and, unless I've missed the announcement, you are not a WG chair. Sure, I'll drop you from To: Cc: and Bcc lists of all my outgoing messages, but this won't help. So, if the discussion makes you nervous or annoys you in any way
PLEASE feel free to unsubcribe temporarily from the WG lists (;=)!
