	NH=>This activity has been ongoing in BT for some time and we are
currently formulating our requirements for the OTN.  We have already
mentioned many of our concerns/views on the list.  If complete in time for
the next IETF we may try and bring something along to help shape the
framework.  We are also already active with other operators/vendors and
working on G.ason in the ITU....which is starting with a 'requirements
capture' phase for the OTN control-plane.  Always willing to talk face-face.
