Dear all, Wrt draft-betts, I believe it is appropriate to allocate a code point for the referenced specification without any restriction about the possibility to evolve messages/protocols when compatibility is preserved. It is not only unnecessary but it does not help in improving the

Considering that the need for this code point is a result of the ITU not fully complying with the IETF agreement, I cannot agree that we should simply allocate a code point for whatever the ITU wants to do in the future. It seems the best of the options to allocate a code point (much better than

All, Two points to consider: 1) Below it is stated: In the future, all codepoint allocations to the ITU-T should be tied to one specific, dated revision of their specification only. This is similar to the ITU-T's own processes, such as section 2.2.1 of Rec. A.5, which requires a version

Nurit, Section 2 “Scope of the Ethernet based OAM ACH Type” contains the following text: The code point allocated by this document is intended to be used only for Ethernet based OAM messages, defined in the ITU-T Recommendation [G.8113.1], carried in the G-ACh . These Ethernet based OAM

Malcolm, As mentioned before, I cannot support the publication of the current version of draft-betts...it must be revised first to address the concerns I and others raised on the list. Maybe you could clarify how the text in your draft can be improved to protect the use of the code point from

Ross, i am afraid that you missed the point. There will not be a final version since as written in draft-betts, all ITU recommendations are subject to revisions, and the code point will also be used for future revisions of the document. New messages/protocols can be defined in future revisions
