Re: [mpls] The MPLS WG has placed draft-mirsky-mpls-bfd-bootstrap-clarify in state "Candidate for WG Adoption"

[Joel Halpern <[e-mail]>]

to be a variation on the nomcom favorite confusion between nominee and 
candidate. )  I wonder if the tag could be "WG Adoption has been 
requestedd by the authors"?

Yours,

Joel
