Yakov,

Actually, the chairs did respond to your first request. See
http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/nvo3/current/msg01764.html.

The one response to this I see in the archive said:

This seems like a pretty weak justification to me. Not every document
related to VM migration will automatically be in scope as an NVO3 WG
document. IMO, this document by itself doesn't really make sense as a
standalone WG document.

The document is pretty short. If you skip the definitions/background,
the "meat" seems to be section 3.4. This section covers ground that
the problem statement covers (though could be expanded on, i.e., to
explicitly also mention the case of in-bound traffic). I.e., see
section 3.7. (And note that the issue can occur within a single data
center, you don't need to have a virtual network span multiple data
centers as your document seems to focus on.)

My suggestion would be to have the problem statement expand section
3.7 to explicitly cover both the ingress and egress cases.

Thomas
