Adrian,


For me the answer is affirmative to all three questions. However, it might
be appropriate to expand on the motivations after the introduction in terms
of protocol fit as the current version only provides a functional fit.

Bart.

All,

There is a draft (draft-papadimitriou-ccamp-gmpls-l2sc-lsp-03.txt) that we
have discussed at several of the more recent CCAMP meetings, and have
decided that the subject is within scope for our charter.

The questions we have faced have been:
- is the problem well enough articulated?
- is this the solution that the WG wants to pursue?
- is there a high enough level of interest in this work?

If the answer to all three questions is "yes" then we can adopt the draft
as a WG document and move forwards.

Note: I think there are a large number of minor issues to clear up with
this draft, but hopefully this is orthogonal to whether we make this a WG
draft or not.

Thanks,
Adrian
