Hi Joel,

Thank you for your feedback.  I understand your concern / objection is not 
technical, but more a procedural one, and so I thought I should respond to this.

The document was reviewed in IETF, and was adopted based on the WG feedback and 
after establishing consensus.  Lot of work and efforts went into this document 
over the last 2+ years from the working group.  IMO, the document went through 
a proper IETF document development process.

Now, Regarding the comments related to 3GPP inputs, the document was presented 
in 3GPP and is documented in 3GPP TR 29.892. So, I am reasonably certain, a RFC 
publication of this document is not going to spring a surprise to 3GPP. 

On the comment we should work based on explicit inputs, I personally do not 
agree with that view. IMO, we at IETF need to make efforts to publish new tools 
that are applicable to 3GPP, 802.11 or any other access.  That effort should 
not be conditional to 3GPP or other SDO approving that work. That will not do 
good to IETF goals, of building a better internet. IETF is not an extension to 
3GPP body, and their endorsement is not needed for every document that we 
publish. 3GPP can absolutely choose to keep GTP-U for another 20 years and that 
is their prerogative. Publication of this spec is not altering that order. 
FWIW, we should invest in the right technologies, some will make it and some 
won’t. 

At this time I am marking your objection on procedural grounds. We will discuss 
this input with our AD, as part of review of other WG feedback.

Thanks
Sri 
(DMM WG Chair)

    As I believe I said earlier, I consider this work to be inappropriate 
    for the IETF and the working group.

    Developing SRv6 is an IETF activity. We have done and are doing that.
    Developing any needed extensions to address 3GPP requirements should be 
    done in conjunction with 3GPP based on their requirements.  3GPP has not 
    expressed any such requirements.
    When other standards bodies have redefined the architecture of our 
    protocols, we (the IETF) have objected.   And for good reasons.

    Therefore, we owe other standards bodies the same respect.  We should 
    not produce standards (this is a standards track document) that modify 
    other bodies architectures.

    Yours,
    Joel
