COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

   "The responsibility includes..."

What an odd construction. Can better words be chosen?

-   Maintain existing MPLS requirements, mechanisms, and protocols,
    in coordination with other working groups, e.g. CCAMP, PWE3
    and OPSAWG working groups.

I'm not sure what work item(s) you're talking about here. Is the WG
updating existing requirements documents and/or protocol documents in
response to new requirements from CCAMP, PWE3, and OPSAWG? Not clear from
what's said what is being referred to.

-   Evolve key MPLS protocols, including LDP, tLDP, mLDP, RSVP-TE
    and LSP Ping to meet new requirements.

Same question as above. "Evolve" is an odd word to choose, and I'm
curious if the list of protocols is exhaustive. Please clarify.

-   Determine MPLS-specific aspects of traffic engineering for
    multi-areas/multi-AS in cooperation with the CCAMP WG

Is there a reason this bullet changed from the previous version? It seems
to have removed the "and document it" part.

I'm not going to block this rechartering, but I would like to hear why
the charter became (apparently) more mushy than it had been.
