From: Matthew.Bocci@alcatel.co.uk Subject: Liaison from ATM Forum to PWE3 WG To: statements@ietf.org To: PWE3 Working group Chairs In order to maintain the technical progress in the ATM Forum, we would very much appreciate if the IETF PWE3 WG could expedite the IANA code point assignment for FEC 128 and FEC 129 code points and the PW status TLV code points in draft-ietf-pwe3-control-protocol-05.txt and draft-ietf-pwe3-iana-allocation-02.txt. The ATM Forum is developing a specification that uses procedures contained in these documents to establish ATM control channels in ATM-MPLS Network Interworking. To complete the work and approve the specification, these code points require IANA assignment. Please advise us at your earliest convenience on the status of the code point assignments. Best regards, Matthew Bocci Chair, ATM Forum AIC Working Group
