Hello, In my experience it is a common practice when writing an IETF draft to talk about "several operators" without explicitly naming all of them. For example section 2.1 of http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-mpls-seamless-mpls-06 says: " Multiple Service Providers plan to deploy networks with 10k to 100k MPLS nodes, with varying levels of MPLS LSP connectivity between those nodes - sparse-mesh in access, partial-mesh in aggregation and full-mesh in core."
Without explicitly mentioning who/how many they are. We have some operators as co-authors, but not all the operators we have been working with participate at the IETF. If "many" does not seem the appropriate word we could replace it with "some".

Could the authors of the draft quantify how "many" is "many operators", and how exactly did the authors determine this number.
