Betreff: Advancing the Multicast L3VPN protocol drafts

While there was rough consensus in Dublin to decouple the protocol drafts from the choice of how to describe the use of those protocols to create interoperable Multicast VPNs, and to progress the protocol drafts immediately, such decisions must be confirmed by this list.

The essence of the "decoupling" proposal is that the protocol documents will progress (which will clearly take some time) while the Working Group decides what profile drafts, requirement drafts, etc., will accompany them.

Therefore :

Should the L3VPN WG submit both

draft-ietf-l3vpn-2547bis-mcast  AND
draft-ietf-l3vpn-2547bis-mcast-bgp to the IESG

as multicast VPN solutions and as proposed standards ?

If you support this proposal  please
reply with a "yes", if you're opposed, reply with a "no".

While comments and suggestions are welcomed, please make your position clear in your response. Note that this is not a WG Last Call on these documents, but a request for a WG decision.

Please provide any feedback no later than August 21, 2008.

Regards
Marshall Eubanks
