Dear Adrian,

Thanks for the rapid response.

IMO, (at least) the definitions of encapsulation, transit and decapsulation 
nodes are well defined (and also well understood from the IETF community), so I 
am personally not worried about any future changes to these definitions.

I only wanted to get the perspective from the authors and I would say your 
response is rather encouraging.

Cheers,
Alex
