I quite agree about cutting the fellow a lot of slack.  And I'll respectfully extend my apologies if my earlier response was considered too abrupt....its always hard to convey proper tone over email.

I deeply appreciate Stewart speaking up on the matter on the list.  And whether the proper response to the business oriented questions are "it doesn't matter" or "its out of scope" is possibly splitting hairs.  I just feel strongly that a measure of consistency approach taken by all.

as for the MPLS question, I thought that Bob Briscoe had responded to that question at the Anaheim meeting.  And if so, perhaps he could reiterate it on the list.

cheers,
