Subject: LDP to Draft Standard - implementation survey


LDP to Draft Standard

  As protocols gets implemented and deployed, there is an IETF process
  to take them further on the standrads track. LDP is a protocol that
  has been both widely implemented and deployed, we will therefore
  start the process to progress LDP to Draft Standard.

  Included is an "LDP Implemenation Survey Form", it specifies in
  some detail the information needed to take this step. We ask
  companies and other organizations that have implemented LDP to take
  the time and answer the questions. The result of the survey will
  be made available as an Internet Draft, the time schedule depends
  very much on that we have the responses in a timely fashion.

  Send the response to the Bob Thomas, who will act as Internet Draft
  editor for the resulting summary document:

  rhthomas@cisco.com


  with a Cc to the wg chairs and the mpls list:

  loa.andersson@utfors.se
  swallow@cisco.com
  mpls@uu.net


  Earlier experiences with this kind of survey indicates that there
  are always a few that likes to respond anonymously, if you want to
  do that send the response to our AD, Scott Bradner:

  sob@harvard.edu

  We want to stress the importance of getting the highest possible
  number of responses, since it is important to create a protocol
  specification of highest possible quality. If there are further
  questions contact the wg chairs.

    Loa and George

LDP Implementation Survey Form [V 1.0]

The purpose of this form is to gather information about implementations
of LDP as defined by RFC3036.  The information is being requested as
part of the process of advancing LDP from Proposed to Draft Standard.

The form is patterned after the implementation report form used
for HTTP/1.1; see:

   http://www.ietf.org/IESG/Implementations/http1.1-implementations.txt
