There is a subtlety for GUE.

draft-herbert-gue-03 specifies GUE as a generic encapsulation
protocol.The use of GUE for network virtualization is specified in
draft-hy-nvo3-gue-4-nvo-01. We also specified the security which I
believe is critical to NVO3 deployment in
draft-hy-gue-4-secure-transport-01.

I personally think it's a good idea to keep the general specification
somewhat decoupled from the network virtualization use case as we are
already seeing deployment use cases for that. But for purposes of WG
adoption in NVO3 these is a question as to how we should proceed:

Should we request WG adoption for each of these?
Is it okay to just request adoption of the primary GUE draft?
Should we consolidate these into one draft for NVO3 purposes?

Thanks,
Tom
