Hi Jim,

As AD, please review and approve the change in paragraph 3 of Section 2.5. This 
change is best viewed in one of the following diff files:

 We have also included the change here:

Original:
  It would assist with the progress toward a simpler, more coherent
  system of MPLS data encapsulation if the use a PSH for non-IP
  payloads encapsulated in MPLS was obsoleted.

Current:
  Section 2 of [RFC4385] suggests the use of a PSH solely for the
  purpose of avoiding IP ECMP treatment of non-IP payloads encapsulated
  in MPLS. Obsoleting this use of a PSH would assist with the progress
  toward a simpler, more coherent system of MPLS data encapsulation.
  (Other uses of a PSH may still be valid.)

Thank you,
RFC Editor/rv
