WHERE DOES IT FIT IN THE PICTURE OF THE SUB-IP WORK:

This fits into TE-WG.


WHY IS IT TARGETED AT THIS WG

This directly addresses a specific item of the TEWG charter:
"For the time being, it also is covering the area of verification that 
diffserv is achievable in traffic engineered SP networks. This will entail 
verification and review of the
Diffserv requirements in the the WG Framework document and initial 
specification of how these requirements can be met through use and 
potentially expansion of
existing protocols. "


JUSTIFICATION

The draft directly addresses an item of the charter.
It replaces draft-ietf-tewg-diff-te-reqts-00.txt which was a TEWG Working 
Group document.
