Mouli, I disagree. There are people on the list that seem to disagree that importance and priority are the same concept. Just the word importance is utterly confusing. It could relate to security, cost, power-up or power-down priority etc. Somebody mentioned PoE and there I agree it is clearly defined. Importance is not. Let us first clearly define how it is used, then let’s make a requirement out of it in case the WG feels it should be. And let us not forget to make clear what it means in the context of EMAN.
