Hi,
FYI, this I-D has been updated after IETF last call and GenArt review as
follows...

Typos

Section 1, para 2
OLD
They should not be
extended or varied without IETF review, and that should preferably
only be extended within the IETF process.
NEW
These protocols should
not be extended or varied without IETF review, and they should
only be extended within the IETF process.
===
Section 1, para 3
ADD
The IETF's formal
standards process is defined in [RFC2026] and [RFC2418], and is not
changed by this document.
===
Section 2.2
OLD
Other working groups, e.g., the Bidirectional Forwarding Detection
(BFD) working group, also use the (G)MPLS protocols and mechanisms.
When any of these working groups needs to extend or change the
(G)MPLS protocols the procedures specified in this document are
applicable.
NEW
Other working groups, e.g., the Bidirectional Forwarding Detection
(BFD) working group, also use the (G)MPLS protocols and mechanisms.
When any of these working groups needs to extend or change the
(G)MPLS protocols the procedures specified in this document are
applicable. Some of those working groups (again, for example, the
BFD working group) are already chartered for requirements evaluation
and protocol specification, and can fit into the procedures in those
roles.

Section 2.3, para 2
OLD
If any organization outside the IETF
has a requirement, or believes it may have a requirement, for
extensions or modifications to the (G)MPLS protocols then the
procedures in this document apply.
NEW
If any organization outside the IETF
has a requirement for extensions or modifications to the (G)MPLS
protocols then the procedures in this document apply.
===
Section 2.4, bullet 1
OLD
For the purpose of extending and changing any protocols specified
in Experimental, Informational, or BCP RFCs developed by the
(G)MPLS working groups, those protocols are considered to be part
of the (G)MPLS protocols.
NEW
For the purpose of extending and changing any protocols specified
in any specification developed by the (G)MPLS working groups,
those protocols are considered to be part of the (G)MPLS
protocols.
===
Section 3, para 3
OLD
Whenever any extension or change to the (G)MPLS protocols is desired,
a requirements statement must be produced and must be submitted to
IETF as an Internet-Draft. As described in [RFC4052], when the
requirements come from an external organization informal
communications such as e-mail to working group mailing lists often
facilitates cooperative work. However, if desired, the Internet-Draft
containing the requirement may be submitted to the working group
using a liaison statement. That way, the IETF's response to the
request will be given as the reply to the liaison, with no risk of
confusing an individual participant's opinion for that of the group
as can happen on mailing lists.
NEW
Whenever any extension or change to the (G)MPLS protocols is desired,
a problem statement and/or requirements statement must be produced
and must be submitted to IETF as an Internet-Draft. As described in

answers in a formal liaison reply:
NEW
If the requirements statement I-D is brought to the IETF through a
formal liaison, the working group chairs, ADs or their delegates MUST
respond using one of the following answers in a formal liaison reply.
If a formal liaison was not used the response SHOULD be delivered
using one of the following answers in an email copied to the
appropriate mailing lists.

Section 4.2.3
OLD
If a new charter item is required, the Routing Area Directors with
assistance from working group chairs MUST apply to the IESG and IAB
for a modification of an existing working group's charter or for the
creation of a new working group. If the IESG approves the charter,
the requirements statement I-D is passed to the rewg for evaluation.
If the charter change is not approved, the IESG MUST respond to the
requirements statement I-D and, if the requirements were introduced
through a formal liaison from another SDO, the IESG MUST send a
liaison response using the options described in Section 5, although
the IESG MAY delegate such responses.
NEW
If a new charter item is required for an existing working group, the
Routing Area Directors with assistance from working group chairs MUST
apply to the IESG and IAB for a modification of an existing working
group's charter or for the creation of a new working group. If the
IESG approves the charter, the requirements statement I-D is passed
to the REWG for evaluation. If the charter change is not approved,
the IESG MUST respond to the requirements statement I-D and, if the
requirements were introduced through a formal liaison from another
SDO, the IESG MUST send a liaison response using the options
described in Section 5, although the IESG MAY delegate such
responses.
Under unusual circumstances the Routing Area Directors MAY decide to
charter a new working group to act as the REWG. In this case, the ADs
are responsible for drafting the charter of the new working group and
MUST follow the procedures set out in the previous paragraph.

being addressed is.

Experimental RFC, and the IETF SHALL NOT block applications to IANA
for codepoints

In this case, the IETF MUST
NOT restrict the authors of the requirements statement I-D from

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories.
Title : Change Process for Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) and
Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) Protocols and Procedures
Author(s) : L. Andersson, A. Farrel
Filename : draft-andersson-rtg-gmpls-change-07.txt
Pages : 23
Date : 2006-11-29
The issues surrounding the extensibility of IETF protocols have been
widely debated. These issues include when it is reasonable to
extend IETF protocols with little or no review, and when extensions
or variations need to be reviewed by the larger IETF community.
Experience with IETF protocols has shown that extensibility of
protocols without early IETF review can cause problems.
The Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) and Generalized MPLS (GMPLS)
suites of protocols have become popular for a number of applications
and deployment scenarios. One result of this popularity is a large
number of suggestions for modifications and extensions.
