It would be good if all announcements for new mailing lists came with a
purpose or description. Not everybody knows what 'oam' means, and it
would save people quite a bit of their time if they wouldn't have to
look it up.

Ah, when I saw this, I immediately thought of the turf wars over just
what this acronym (or whatever) does mean. The IETF has a traditional
meaning which is now being elbowed aside by the ITU-T, for whom the
mpls-tp based work is a suitable Trojan Horse, so, without looking at
the description, I immediately assumed that this is another step in the
ITU-T takeover:-)
RFC4878 gives you one slant while RFC4377 is another and
draft-ietf-opsawg-mpls-tp-oam-def
puts a few nails in the coffin.

Thanks and regards, Martin.
