RE: Advancing the Protocol and Morin Drafts



Title: Advancing the Protocol and Morin Drafts

I vote NO.

Need to get agreement on requirements first, before a specific solution proposal is voted on. I recommend pursuing agreement on requirements in "draft-mnapierala-part-reqt", which addresses the needs of large Multicast VPNs.

====================

This email starts a 3 week call for input, to expire October 23, 2008, 
for the following steps:

1.) To accept draft-morin-l3vpn-mvpn-considerations-03 as a working
group document;  and

2.) To turn this document into a requirements draft, with mandatory to
implement features for an interoperable implementation. The authors
have indicated that they are willing to do this.

Our intention is, if this approach is accepted, to then begin WG last
call to submit to the IESG for publication:

draft-ietf-l3vpn-2547bis-mcast
draft-ietf-l3vpn-2547bis-mcast-bgp

We expect that these two documents will be submitted more or less as is
(i.e., certainly with any new bug fixes or other necessary corrections 
and
improvements, but without specific mandatory to implement feature
description in those drafts).

Please respond to the list with your recommendations for these two
courses of action.

Regards
Marshall & Danny
