Maarten,
>From my side, i don't see any drawback or problem to collaborate
in order to extend G.783. Since the work can be done in parallel,
without any impact on GMPLS signalling, i don't see where the
problem is with the today version of the SDH/Sonet GMPLS document.
I think that Eric summarized very well the current situation.
Kind regards,
- Dimitri.
