Hi Spencer (CCAMP copied as well),

Here is a link for everyone's convenience: 

http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-giacalone-ospf-te-express-path-01.txt  

At IETF 80, there were questions about overlap with other CCAMP drafts 
containing interface delay metrics and proposals for new TE sub-TLVs. Have you 
or your co-authors, done looked at how your draft is positioned versus these 
other drafts? While these applications have differing goals, the CCAMP/OSPF 
chairs requested that this analysis be done.

We would like to avoid having exactly the same information advertised in two 
different link Sub-TLVs. I'd hope we could agree on common units. 

Thanks,
Acee
