Re: [manet] I-D Action: draft-ietf-manet-dlep-da-credit-extension-04.txt

Hi,

There are a few items outstanding on the credit draft:

I received an offline comment that I think should be noted in the 
draft.  The comment was that it might not be obvious that since 
queues/credit windows can be shared among (disjoint) sets of endpoints, 
that sending to one destination in a set reduces the available capacity 
to other destinations.  I'll propose some text on this shortly.

There are also two questions that are still open:

(A) does the WG want to keep the document as is or break apart the 
current document into two documents?

- the first being the credit window and generic traffic classification  
definition and the second being the DA/DSCP extension and traffic 
classification sub-DI

I can't speak for my co-authors, but I'm okay proceeding either way, but 
now is the time to decide.

(B) finally, does the WG want to take the notional Ethernet/PCP based 
traffic classification which was added as an appendix, see [1], to 
sanity check the current functional decomposition and make it a full 
blown Ethernet/PCP extension

my personal preference is to do this, it's not much effort and seems 
worthwhile.

any thoughts and/or comments would be appreciated.

I also look forward to discussing this in London (in the joint meeting 
with ccamp).

Lou
