[mpls] Poll to see if we have consensus to adopt draft-ryoo-mpls-tp-aps-updates as an mpls working group document

[Loa Andersson <[e-mail]>]

Working Group,

This is to start a two week poll on adopting draft-ryoo-mpls-tp-aps-
updates as an MPLS working group document.

Please send your comments (support/not support) to the mpls working
group mailing list ([e-mail]). Please give a technical
motivation for your support/not support, especially if you think that
the document should not be adopted as a working group document.

There are no IPR disclosures against this document.

All the authors has stated on the on the mpls wg mailing list that they
are not aware of any IPRs that relate to this document.

Note: One of the issues that surfaced in the MPLS-RT review was that the
implementation status was unclear. To check on this we did an early
implementation poll. There have been responses to the mailing, to the
mpls wg chairs and to my uni-directionally. The conclusion is that
RFC 7271 (the specification that this document updates) is well
implemented and we know of deployments; a rather large number of
vendors says that they will implement this draft and operators has
stated that it will be deployed once it is available.

The working group adoption poll ends March 19, 2016.
