I hope you are not just picking on this sentence and miss my whole point.  LMP
has much merit, that's why I support it. I just don't think it's desirable to
bundle technology specific and remotely related functional areas together.

BTW, do you think your operation folks will use LMP for fault management in your
SDH network? Do you think LMP can do better than current LMP for fault
management? Do you think LMP is a better solution than G.7712 for control
network management?
