Hi all:

Your SUPA chairs met this morning with some of the SUPA I-D
authors to consider "how can we get people working on some
simple examples to demonstrate how SUPA could be used."

One idea we considered was "we need a few good example uses,
with clear specs written for each - we could start with the
examples in our (draft) Applicability Statement.  That considers
five examples -

   4.1.  Use Case 1: Switched Ethernet services (SES)
   4.2.  Use Case 2: Virtualized Private Clouds (VPC)
   4.3.  Use Case 3: Traffic Manipulation cross DCs
   4.4.  Use Case 4: Virtual SP
   4.5.  Use Case 5: Instant VPN
   4.6.  Use Case 6: traffic optimization and Qos assurance on ISP DC

It would help SUPA a lot to have input, especially from network
operators, telling us "what do you actually want (SUPA to) do?"

Do please give this some thought, and send your 'wishes' text to
the SUPA list!

Cheers, Nevil
