Stuart, Won't that preclude the use of any open source distributed databases ?

There are some changes we should consider OLD Driven by the requirements and consistent with the gap analysis, the WG may request that work is chartered to document solutions consisting of one or more data plane encapsulations and control plane protocols as applicable. NEW Driven by the requirements and consistent with the gap analysis, the WG may request that work be chartered in the IETF to document solutions consisting of one or more data plane encapsulations and control plane protocols as applicable. END Reason: The work may be chartered in NVO3, L2VPN, L3VPN, LISP, elsewhere or in some combination of the above. Until we get through requirements and framework we do not know the right place to do it. If the work is already chartered in the IETF the "may" comes into effect and no new work is chartered. OLD Any documented solutions will use existing mechanisms if suitable, or will develop new mechanisms if necessary. NEW Any documented solutions will use existing IETF protocols if suitable, or will develop IETF protocols if necessary. END Reason: 1) They are protocols and not mechanisms 2) It had been suggested that we use "standards" but that may be interpreted to mean "Standards Track RFC" and hence would be a charter end-run on any IETF protocol that was informational or experimental. Putting it all together: the WG may request that work be chartered in the IETF to document solutions consisting of one or more data plane encapsulations and control plane protocols as applicable. Any documented solutions will use existing IETF protocols if suitable, or will develop IETF protocols if necessary. - Stewart _______________________________________________ nvo3 mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/nvo3 _______________________________________________ nvo3 mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/nvo3
