Re: ASON reqts

CCAMPers,

Having reviewed the proposed requirements draft, and some of the ensuing e-mail discussion, I would say that

"I have read this document, and it isn't ready to be a CCAMP doc"

I am principally concerned that routing requirements are not included. While draft's title is encompassing "GMPLS Usage and Extensions for ASON," the abstract limits this to signaling only. I do not think addressing signaling in a vacuum is a good idea, as there are requirements in the routing area that have impact on the signaling protocols (in so far as they carry routing information) and other general requirements that impact both signaling and routing (such as not exposing network topology information across untrusted interfaces).

I am concerned that if adopted as a WG doc in this state, this would be considered agreement to the limited scope of the draft.

Regards,
Ben

I haven't seen many comments, so the assumption is either that no
one cares, or that folks have read it and have no issues.

I'd like to get a reading on whether this doc is ready to be a
CCAMP WG document.  Please respond (preferably publicly) with one of:
 - "I have read this document and it is ready to be a CCAMP WG doc" OR
 - "I have read this document, and it isn't ready to be a CCAMP doc".

Note that if there aren't enough responses, the default assumption is
that the document is either not of interest or not ready, and in
either case will not become a CCAMP WG doc.  Note too that this doc
is an attempt to bridge some gaps between the IETF and the ITU-T,
and as such is fairly important.  It would be useful to give an
update on its status at the interim T1X1 meeting in June.

Please get your responses in by COB Friday May 16th.

Thanks,
Kireeti.
