Hello,

I was not part of the design team and maybe my question was already answered
in some design team ML.

Is there a document describing where MAP-T was tested,  which products,
operators, test timespan,  test plan,  was it production network,  etc?

And btw, I'm not talking about IVI or the part of MAP-T that is compatible
with IVI. Sorry, but If I will back MAP-T I would like to see MAP-T data,
not a look alike.  I guess this brings another question whether there is a
plan to write a document to for those that have deployed IVI and want to
transition to MAP-T.

Thanks,

Reinaldo

agree and have the same feeling. i'd love to keep study what 4rd-u brings to
the transition architecture and more practices are not excluded along with
the 4rd-u getting well-understood. and if 4rd-u is
approved/improved/verified superior to both -T and -E through the whole
procedure, i don't think it will be a problem that MAP would be obsoleted in
the future. but that's of not our current situation, fixing the problem with
well-understood building blocks is what we must do as soon as possible.
