It is important to set the record straight, especially if this is
used in support of arguments that affect CCAMP.

I don't see where this statement comes from.  Are you asserting
this, or are you speaking on behalf of the ITU?

The CCAMP charter does not mention overlay or peer.  Signaling
is definitely in CCAMP's charter.  Moreover, the second work item,
namely "- Define signalling and measurement protocols that are
independent of each other" etc. clearly indicates that CCAMP is
chartered to show how signaling can be done independently of routing.
This ID shows how.

Point of clarification: CCAMP covers a COMMON control plane, which may
be specialized to optical networks.

Okay, noted.

Thanks,
