Eric, Soctt and Kam,

First, thanks for a real good job on this draft I really appreciate
your effort to keep things on schedule.

Second. if I understand correctly this version is aligned with the
version (-06) that the IETF sent to the ITU-T for a one week final
approval check. Since this request did not result in a quick response
but resulted in a prolonged debate it has now taken ITU-T more than
two weeks to respond.

There are two consequences
- the schedule is sliding and<
-  we don't know what impact on other documents it might have if the
    ITU-T decides come back to us and ask for further changes.

I'll therefore *not* start the wg last call until I have the response
on the MPLS-TP requirements draft.

I will also rework and publish a new MPLS-TP schedule.

/Loa
