It will be interesting to see BoF minutes, because I didn't see large 
majority.  For what it's worth, my recollection was:

I saw less than about 5-10 people supporting TSP.
I saw less than about 5-10 people supporting doing something new.
I saw less than about 5-10 people being comfortable with existing
  mechanisms (like L2TP).

Bottom line is that if we don't need to care about the RTT and 
overhead concerns at all, I can't clearly see real benefits for TSP 
instead of just using L2TP.
