[mpls] poll to see if we have support to make draft-xu-mpls-in-udp an mpls working group document

[Loa Andersson <[e-mail]>]

Working group,

This is to start a "two week" poll on adopting
draft-xu-mpls-in-udp-06 as an MPLS working group document.
Due to the holiday season this poll has been extended with one week.

Please send your comments (support/not support) to the mpls working
group mailing list (mpls at ietf.org) Please give an technical
motivation for your support/not support, especially if you think that
the document should not be adopted as a working group document.

This poll ends January 07, 2013.

There is one IPR claim against this document -
https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/1941/ .

All the active co-authors has stated on the working group mailing list
that they are not aware of any other IPR claims than those already
disclosed.

However, up to version -03 (the document that we used for the IPR poll)
Marshall Eubanks was listed as one of the authors. Marshall has
discontinued all interactions with the IETF, including the author team
of draft-xu-mpls-in-udp-06. The working group chairs has tried to
contact Marshall by other means, to try get a response on the IPR poll.
We have had no success in this.

 From version -04 the authors decided to remove Marshall as a co-author.
