SUMMARY

VPNs are a common service being offered by providers.  The PPVPN WG
is tasked with defining a limited number of solutions to support the
interoperable deployment of VPN services.  As part of this effort, a
design team was tasked with defining the requirements of PPVPN
discovery proposals, to analyze if additional discovery schemes are
needed, and to characterize potential solutions to the problem. 
This draft is the output of that design work.  Consensus was not
reached on the solution characteristics.  However, this draft
attempts to capture the discussions and positions of the design team
exchanges.
