It may be a good idea to explain where GMPLS is lacking in meeting ASON
and DCM requirements. YOu, being involved in this process, is the best
person to articulate the major drawbacks. WHy don't you spend a minute in
higlighting them.

THese discussions are becoming highly non-technical and unproductive. Let us
streamline our energy to a common cause - find the enhancements needed to
accomodate ASON architecture.
