	Dirk,
	 
	We did not dwell on multicast TE aspects in the framework 
	draft for the following reasons:
	 
	- Multicast TE is still pretty much a research topic. 
	 
	- There was no service provider interest in pursuing the topic. 
	   When the framework draft was first written, three of the
co-authors 
	   worked for three major service providers. Additionally, input
was solicited from many others. The clear feedback was that 
	   Multicast TE was not considered a substantial issue in
present 
	   operational contexts. 
	 
	Regards,
	/Dan

		The draft doesn't discuss multicast TE.  Is it because
there is no
		operator interest, there is no experience, nobody wants
to break his/her
		brains on it or ....?
