9.  Revised Milestones -- a growing list. (Morton)



10. New work proposal: Automatic Protection Switching Benchmark Terminology
    The WG has discussed this item at several previous meetings.
    Is the BMWG the right home for this I-D? The Goal has been articulated
    as follows:


    The objective of this effort is to produce a terminology and
    methodology set of drafts that specifies the performance
    benchmarking sub-IP layer resiliency and protection technologies.
    There is a common terminology draft and multiple methodology drafts
    for the technologies.  The methodology drafts will include (but not
    limited to) Automatic Protection Switching (APS) for SONET/SDH,
    Fast Reroute for Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS), and
    Resilient Packet Ring (RPR) standardized in IEEE. (T.Kimura, J.Perser)
