	Hi! I have some basic questions related to the usage of E-LSPs.
	I will appreciate, if you can help me with the following questions:

	Q1. Is any domain administrator/service provider actually using 
	(planning) to use the E-LSPs in their network ? In which cases,
	E-LSPs are more useful than L-LSPs?

	Q2. While deploying E-LSPs in the network, is the primary usage
	is limited to differentiation via the signaled DiffServ classes ? 

	OR is there practical use for reserving (and enforcing) bandwidth
	for the E-LSP  (per LSP / per PSC bandwidth specification) ?


	Currently, the DS-TE-requirement draft does not address the 
	E-LSP related requirements very clearly. Should it be updated
	with E-LSP related requirements?	
	
	Thanks,
