I want the whole community to be aware of the comments that I made to the
press over the past few days. Last Friday, the ITU-T Study Group 15 decided
to move forward with an OAM solution that is incompatible with the work being
done in the IETF MPLS WG. This is a breach of the agreement reached by the
IETF and the ITU-T, which is published in RFC 5317.
The ITU-T press release about their action is here:
http://www.itu.int/net/pressoffice/press_releases/2011/03.aspx
On behalf of the IETF, ISOC helped get the word out:
http://isoc.org/wp/newsletter/?p=3287
The press is starting to cover the story:

http://news.idg.no/cw/art.cfm?id=8B71BD58-1A64-6A71-CE24B4B4EB59B200
And, the ITU-T made a second announcement today:
http://www.itu.int/ITU-T/newslog/Experts+Cast+Doubt+On+Jeopardize+Internet+Statement.aspx
With a very badly worded appeal to unnamed authority. Not a good response in my
opinion.

I expect that there will be more press coverage of this unfortunate situation.
Thanks,
Russ
