Re: I-D ACTION:draft-ietf-l2tpext-l2tp-ppp-02.txt

Hi WG,

The updated revision -02 of "PPP over L2TPv3" just posted
[draft-ietf-l2tpext-l2tp-ppp]. The goal of the changes is to follow some
of the transition or direction that the base specification went though
until RFC3931 and this document wasn't updated, while minimizing the
distance from L2TPv2 for a seamless support. This includes for example
the addition of a PPP PW Type, use of Circuit Status AVP, etc.
All the updates are listed in the new Appendix A. "Revision History".

Full set of diffs (which in parts seems larger than the changes in
content due to formatting differences when I moved the source to xml) is
here:
http://tools.ietf.org/wg/l2tpext/draft-ietf-l2tpext-l2tp-ppp/draft-ietf-l2tpext-l2tp-ppp-02-from-01.diff.html

Please review the updates and the full text and comment.

Thanks,

--Carlos.
