Title: MPLS and GMPLS Change Process
State: Active
Authors: Loa Andersson

The MPLS and GMPLS protocol suites have become quite popular for a growing
number of applications and deployment scenarios. One result of this
popularity is a large number of suggestions for modifications and
extensions. The IETF needs to be flexible and responsive in how it handles
these suggestions, and has a responsiblity to supervise the growth and
evolution of MPLS and GMPLS protocols. This memo describes the process
through which individuals, working groups and external standards bodies can
influence the development of the MPLS and GMPLS standards. This process
means that extensions and changes to protocols specified by these working
groups can only be made through the IETF, the body that created the (G)MPLS
((Generalized) Multiprotocol Label Switching) technologies.
