The MPLS WG Archive

["Thomas D. Nadeau" <tnadeau@cisco.com>]

         You noted that the MPLS-LSR/TE/LDP/FTN-MIBs are
no longer in the charter's scope. After reading the
revised charter, I seem to agree with you (though
not with the charter). This seems bad to me since
they were defined (and accepted by the wg) to manage
specific MPLS components. Where are things like this
going to be moved? I think that it would be a terrible
shame to loose this work, especially since there are
numerous implementations of these drafts out there
now.
