Hi L2VPN working group chairs,

In March 2010, we submitted the initial version of this draft. Based on various feedbacks received on the mailing list and via private consultations, we have updated the draft three times, also with addition of authors from both nework operators and vendors. The current version was submitted in September 
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-delord-l2vpn-ldp-vpls-broadcast-exten-03

There have been substantial discussions on the mailing list in March and in September. The current 03-version was presented in the recent IETF79 in Beijing. In the past nine months, we repeatedly received feedbacks that this solution is valuable to network operators, addressing real and urgent requirement in a simple way, while there was no objection from the mailing list and during working group meeting.

The authors think the draft is ready for working group draft adoption. Grateful if you could consider.

Best regards,
Raymond Key
