Hi Tom,

I think we have a disconnect somewhere...when I said
that the use of the "TC" was not consistent, I meant with
TCs in general (not just in GMPLS MIBs), so would prefer
to see this removed.

I looked at the use of the Textual Conventions in the
GMPLS MIBs and saw that one still is the same as
an Object (except in case) which was gmplsLabelType.
(I do think there was more overlap originally but names have
changed since then).

My suggestion would be to remove the "TC" suffix from the
TCs and change the name of the overlapping gmplsLabelType object
to something else (gmplsTypeOfLabel).

I do realize this is a style issue, so not a show stopper, only a humble
suggestion.

Thanks,
  Joan
