Oh, most certainly.
My intention is that whenever we finalize a CCAMP draft we will liaise it to all
interested parties.

Well, I see three separate documents from that date.
wd35r1_liaison_ccamp_sig-req.doc has the title "Liaison Statement To IETF CCAMP WG on
<draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-ason-reqts-05.txt"
wd34r3_liaison_ccamp_routing.doc has the title "Response To IETF CCAMP WG on ASON Routing
Requirements"
wd33r3_signalling-liaison-to-ccamp.doc has the title "Response to IETF CCAMP WG regarding
Comments on G.7713.2"

Thus, two liaisons were explicitly about the requirements drafts, and one was in response
to the liaison from CCAMP about G.7713.2. It was the third of these that you pointed to in
your orriginal email and it includes some useful background material that will definitiely
be taken on board by the GMPLS ASON signaling draft authors when they work on the next
revision.

Unfortunately, work on the solutions draft has been blocked pending the completion of the
requirements drafts, but it looks like we are about ready to start moving again.

Yes, and when the authors have the oportunity to work on the draft further, I'm sure they
will generate a response.

I'm sure we can.
