 The JWT report is aligned with my statement.

JD:  As SG15 management is fond of pointing out, when it suits them, the JWT 
operated on a very compressed time scale and didn't fully explore all of the 
technical issues

 
 The decision at IETF75 has been taken by the MPLS WG after the JWT and
 has
 never been endorsed by ITU-T (Huub is NOT ITU-T and, as far as I
 understood, he
 later removed his name because the other editors of the OAM Analysis
 draft were
 not considering his input to the document).

JD:  I'm not sure what your point is

 
 The BFD-based solution accepted by IETF75 for pro-active CC/CV/RDI was
 completely different (and technically much superior) than the one
 described by
 this draft.

JD:  Obviously we disagree

 
 Accepting a solution that meets the requirements does not mean signing
 a blank
 cheque that whichever changes is done is acceptable regarless whether
 it meets
 or not the requirements.

JD:  The requirements as documented in RFCs 5654, 5860, and 5951, or the 
requirements that seem to change based upon the phases of the moon?

 Italo,
 
 The design team report
 (http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/75/slides/mpls-
 17/mpls-17_files/frame.htm), with Huub's name as an author, details a
 plan for
 MPLS-TP OAM which the MPLS WG has followed to this day.  I think the
 report is
 compelling evidence that the claim that a packet transport network is
 an MPLS
 application that intrinsically requires a different OAM solution is
 simply a
 lame ex post facto attempt to justify the ITU's abrogation of the
 agreement
 with the IETF (TD07 (WP3/SG15) from December 2008 sourced by SG15):
 
 The ITU-T accepts these recommendations and states that any
 extensions to
 MPLS technology will be progressed via the IETF standards process using
 the
 procedures defined in RFC 4929 (Change Process for Multiprotocol Label
 Switching (MPLS) and Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) Protocols and
 Procedures).
 Experts from the ITU-T will assist the IETF in the development of RFCs
 that
 describe the transport extensions by providing input to and review of
 the
 drafts as they are progressed via the IETF standards process.. The ITU-
 T will
 develop new or revised Recommendations that will allow IETF MPLS-TP to
 be
 integrated into the transport network including integration with the
 existing
 equipment, and operations infrastructure.  These Recommendations will
 make
 normative references to the base IETF MPLS-TP technology and will be
 developed
 with input from and review by experts from the IETF to ensure
 consistency with
 MPLS-TP...
 
 The ITU-T has accepted the proposals from the JWT and we look forward
 to
 continuing the cooperative development of IETF MPLS to address the
 needs of the
 transport network. We also believe that this resolution will fulfil the
 mutual
 goal of improve the functionality of the internet and transport
 networks and
 guaranteeing complete interoperability and architectural soundness.
 
 Thanks,
 
 John
