RE: Moving forward with the CCAMP charter

["Ong, Lyndon" <Lyong@Ciena.com>]

Hi Adrian,

As with everyone else, I appreciate all of the work that
you put in to create a very detailed workplan for the group.

Some follow up questions and suggestions: 

-- On the "aligning GMPLS across standards bodies" item:

First of all, what standards bodies do you see included under
this effort?
  
Also, are you intending this to be a unilateral document on ccamp's
part?
If it is, I'm not sure I see what it would say besides "use the RFCs or
bring the requirements back to us", which is what this group has said in

the past.  If on the other hand you see this as the basis for joint
discussion with
other bodies, it might be a very helpful activity.

-- On the ""routing and signaling for complex optical constraints" item:

The ashwood draft seems to me to have two components, one being 
requirements and considerations of routing across a purely photonic
domain
and the second being a particular solution (the matrix representation),
to
which there are alternatives such as the virtual link approach that Igor
has identified.  

I think these two should probably be separated, as the solution may be 
more widely applied to any situation of advertising a virtualized 
topology, such as in enhanced l1vpn.

Cheers,

Lyndon
