RE: Alternative to draft-ash-mpls-diffserv-te-class-types-00.txt ?

["Choudhury, Sanjaya" <Sanjaya.Choudhury@marconi.com>]

 As I indicated in the previous e-mail, since the
 individual parameters are signaled independently
 [which are already standardized], there should not
 be a interoperability problem.

 I fail to understand, how does it matter in what 
 name the service provider market his service ?
 
 Thanks,
 sanjay
