Hi PCE members. As you may (SHOULD ;-) ) have noticed in our agenda for Hiroshima, Daniel King will present his I-D named "The Application of the PCE Architecture to the Determination of a Sequence of Domains in MPLS & GMPLS" (introduced during the Stockholm meeting). Nonetheless our current charter soberly says: "The PCE WG will work on application of this model within a single Domain or within a small group of domains (where a domain is a layer, IGP area or Autonomous System with limited visibility from the head-end LSR). At this time, applying this model to large groups of domains such as the Internet is not thought to be possible, and the PCE WG will not spend energy on that topic."
In other words, we are flirting with our charter border and the scope of some drafts depends on it. In this context, the chairs would like to get a feedback from the WG on evolving towards larger groups of domains. Does the WG think we are now ready to follow this path? Do you have operational requirements and/or concerns in mind in terms of applicability, order of magnitude, implementation...? Comments are very welcome. You are probably aware that we have passed over a milestone about rechartering: beyond the upcoming meeting, your feedback will be useful input for the envisioned charter update (targetted for the end of the year).
