Hi Diego,

Thanks for putting this I-D together. I think it gives a much clearer 
picture of what you are trying to achieve with your discussion of moving 
control of an LSP between the management plane and the control plane.

This seems like a reasonable set of requirements to me, and I would like to 
see some discussion from folk on whether they think this is valuable work, 
and whether we should start to look for protocol solutions.

Thanks,
Adrian
