Don't confuse LMP with LMP-WDM.  There is no major controversy over
LMP.  The debate was how to add some functionality to extract
information from WDMs.  One proposal, LMP-WDM, extends LMP to do
this.  NTIP proposes a new protocol.  Just because there is a debate
over where this new functionality goes, we shouldn't let that affect
the progress of LMP.
