Re: [OPS-DIR] FW: BoF in Taipei

Similarly, VPN4DC should be of interest to the OPS area.  This was not
approved as
a BOF, but will be discussed in the L3VPN mailing list (now) and (if
there is sufficient interest)
in a L3VPN meeting in Taipei.

You can find a brief description in http://trac.tools.ietf.org/bof/trac/wiki

Please direct discussion of VPN4DC to L3VPN.

Marshall Eubanks
