Hi Igor,

Not sure that the scope of this discussion is particularly appropriate to 
CCAMP and Softwires mailing lists. Might be more relevant on the L1VPN and 
OSPF lists. You could open a thread there if you want to debate this 
further.

Please see RFC 5253 section 7.1

     Alternatively, a separate instance of
     the OSPF protocol can be used just between PEs for distributing
     membership information.

This appears to be exactly the point you are making. So perhaps we are all 
in agreement?

Adrian
