| Body: | This liaison is to inform you that an editing error were detected in
version -03 of the MPLS NM Requirements, this has been corrected in
version -04 of the document as follows:
In Appendix A bullet #2
OLD
2. The CCh may be provided by a link in the transport network
that is terminated at the ends of the DCC and which is capable
of encapsulating and terminating packets of the management
protocols. For example, in MPLS-TP a single-hop LSP might be
established between two adjacent nodes, and that LSP might be
capable of carrying IP traffic. Management traffic can then be
inserted into the link in an LSP parallel to the LSPs that
carry
user traffic.

5. The CCh may provided by a dedicated channel associated with
the data link. For example, the generic associated label (GAL)
[13] may be used to label DCC traffic being exchanged on a
data
link between adjacent transport nodes, potentially in the
absence of any data LSP between those nodes.

Since we believe this is a very minor change we do not think this will
require any extra time, but will expect your response on our liaison
"MPLS-TP NM Req-03 Avaiable (ref # 004.02)" on Sep 15, and will, if
positive, interprete as if we can go ahead request publication of
version -04 of the document as an RFC on the standards track.
