Re: Proposed CCAMP recharter

adrian

couple of points on editorship:

- MRN req + eval. should imho be ready by end Aug.
- concerning the i/w document i'd like to suggest referring to MPLS-TE (rather than MPLS) since applying only to RSVP-TE
- also you refer to a solution for the latter but we just have req. and a framework since so far -> are u sure solution would be ready by Sep'07 
or alternatively the former doc shall be split and further discussed
we need also a milestone for input to the MPLS security doc. but not sure this has to be recorded 

concerning the charter, two specific comments
- like also mentioned during the second meeting, clarifying the term Ethernet types would be suggested otherwise entering in an open-ended discussion about what is allowed/not allowed, desired/not-desired, possible/not possible, etc. and probably focus on the analytical work here (something we should have probably done in the GELS context but did not happen) - side note here it was always felt useful to have operational use case described as well but that work did also never happen
- is this milestone also including Ethernet service signaling e.g. MEF ? in that case i would suggest to make a clear distinction here ? 

thanks,
-d.

Hi,
As discussed at the meeting(s) we should consider a small recharter to put the GELS work clearly in scope and to indicate that we will work with IEEE 802.1 as necessary.
We should take the opportunity to rejig the milestones, but noting that a bunch of (overdue) milestones are about to be completed it is moot whether we should rearrange them all. Basically, I am too lazy to do that and propose just to change the ones that are further out.
I would like to ask you all to look at this and comment. In particular: are the document editors happy with these targets? 

ADs - your opinions too, please.

The changes proposed are...
===
First paragraph
OLD
The CCAMP working group coordinates the work within the IETF defining a common control plane and a separate common measurement plane for physical path and core tunneling technologies of Internet and telecom service providers (ISPs and SPs), e.g. O-O and O-E-O optical switches, ATM and Frame Relay switches, MPLS, GRE, in cooperation with the MPLS WG.

Final paragraph
OLD
In doing this work, the WG will work closely with at least the following other WGs: MPLS, ISIS, OSPF, IDR, L1VPN and PCE. The WG will also cooperate with the ITU-T.
