When there is substantial deployment in the field with the existing
approach, making a newer proposal a must and the exiting one an optional
is business/operation/customer impacting. Many folks spoke out here are
running live networks, this is not a theoretical debate. I don't see we
can get consensus here. 

Could we still proceed with the two protocol drafts, like we did for
L2VPN - both LDP signaling and BGP signaling became standards? I think
that would be useful comparing with no standards for MVPN at all. 

Thanks,
Luyuan
