RE: [NSIS] QSPEC document



Hi John and Jerry, I think there is a misundersatnading here. The QoS NSLP functionality surely cannot be changed without modifying QoS NSLP. 

Regarding the QoS-NSLP state machine, I think it is not definitive and it is determined by QoS NSLP and QOSM together. The RMF functions are clearly determined the QOSM. It does not mean to define new QoS NSLP signaling functionality.

Best regards, Attila
