RE: [L2CP] Working group name: decision time

I'm comfortable with the "AN" characterization, which refers to existing
DSL-Forum terminology, while keeping it more general than DSL.

I think ANCO would be better then. Once again, it would be a bad thing
to infer that we're defining a brand new protocol. 

What bugs me a little bit is that it would be great to add a qualifier
to better express the dynamic, transactional & inband nature of the
concept. Inband (ANIC)? Dynamic (ANDC)? Real-time (ANRC)? I can't find
the right word...

Subject: [L2CP] Working group name: decision time

All,

We've had a fairly lengthy discussion on the potential names for the
working group.

There seems to be a reasonable number of people in favour of either BAMP
or
GAMP. However, there also seem to be a reasonable number of people who
would not like to see 'management' in the WG name, as it would more
accurately be described as a control protocol.

Of the other names, there were few that included control, did not clash
with other acronyms, and did not say "layer 2 control" (which was one of
the problems with L2CP).

In an attempt to come to a conclusion on this, please can you indicate
your
preference between the following:

ANCO (Access Node Control)

ANCP (Access Node Control Protocol)

Thanks,

Matthew
