hi kireeti,

i agree w/ the following statement:

> If having two documents in this space is an issue, please make your
> concerns known to the OIF. 

this mis-understanding of the current situation 
doesn't arise due to the ccamp community effort 
*¨which is open * but from oif positioning which 
does only produces "implementation agreements" 
on public uni, nni, whatever but nothing else

in order to have a constructive discussion on the
above mentioned document i hope that (since the 
point has been clarified twice, at least) that we 
will focus now on our own efforts concerning 
gmpls for overlay networks

thanks,
- dimitri.
