Working Groups, Open Design Team, Discussion in and around the MPLS Open DT has identified the need to document existing extensions to the MPLS data plane, e.g the Entropy Label and the Extension Label. Cases that use two labels to convey a single common message. It is also envisaged that the outcome of the work in the MPLS Open DT will result in similar architectural extensions. The co-chair for the working groups hosting the Open MPLS DT has decided to ask Jie Dong and Stewart Bryant to work as editors for this document. When this document was discussed in the DT there were quite a bit of interest to work on this document, it is therefore expected that that the editors will invite to open meetings to discuss this document, alternatively request slots at the DT meeting or that entire DT meetings are dedicated to such discussion. /Loa for the MPLS Open DT co-chairs -- Loa Andersson email: loa@pi.nu Senior MPLS Expert loa.pi.nu@gmail.com Bronze Dragon Consulting phone: +46 739 81 21 64
