This isn't just a "mention" - Section 10 of the VPN4DC problem statement draft (and to a lesser extent Section 12) of the VPV4DC draft are entirely about BGP/MPLS L3VPNs. If those sections are to remain in the draft, then I suggest that the draft needs some clear scope language up front to say that it's only about BGP/MPLS L3VPNs, and it could also use a new title that is consistent with that scope, as BGP/MPLS is not the only IP VPN technology.

Yes, our draft is focused on L3 solutions for its scalability and all IP application support. Ø Since this is a Problem Statement and Requirements, it would be better if it did not have many contents of solution specific, e.g, BGP, MPLS label. Since we are talking L3 VPN, therefore IP, VPN, GRE, BGP, MPLS come into the discussion. Wouldn't this be the same nature as TRILL, VLAN, etc. being discussed in draft-natern-nvo3-overlay-problem-statement? May be we should look into how to resolve this, one option could be that the problem statement do not mention any protocols? E.g. TRILL, VLAN, and any other protocols should be removed from draft-natern-nvo3-overlay-problem-statement. Protocols discussions could split into separate protocol gap analysis, requirements...? We could do the same for L3 if this is the preferred way by WG.

The two draft seem to be complementary for me. Since this is a Problem Statement and Requirements, it would be better if it did not have many contents of solution specific, e.g, BGP, MPLS label.
