You have said a number of times now that network managers want and
need SLs.

Question: Do you believe that if we keep SLs, this implies
that we will indeed need to complete the work on multi-site nodes and
that multi-site nodes will become necessary in practice to deal with
what I expect the common practice of nodes being in multiple sites
simultaneously (as I described in an earlier note)?

(One of the things that happened at the SF meeting was that a number
of people expressed skepticism at the viability of a limited usage
"compromise" where we could use SLs in a limited fashion.)
