RE: New work items

["NAPIERALA, MARIA H, ATTLABS" <mnapierala at att.com>]

Danny, et al.,

the progress of draft-ietf-l3vpn-mvpn-considerations-04 (which is an
*informational* document) should not interfere with the actual progress
of MVPN technology (i.e., with the progress of the documents that define
the technology). The new work items which were listed are required to
support MVPNs already deployed in production networks. 
The draft-ietf-l3vpn-mvpn-considerations-04 should and can progress
independently of the technical work.
