Hey Alexandre, I feel your frustration, but to me it feels like there is very little sharable knowledge in your experience. You seem to compare full-blown VPLS, with virtual switch and MAC learning to single LDD martini. You also seem to blame BGP pseudowires for BGP transport flapping, clearly you'd have equally bad time if LDP transport flaps, but at least in BGP's case you can have redundancy via multiple RR connections, with LDP you're reliant on the single session.
