Subject: [bmwg] On the proposed OSPF BMWG item.

Some things to think about when considering this proposed work item.

1) Where will it fit in with past (e.g. RFC 3222), current _and_ future
   work?  (e.g., a next step in this EGP/IGP theme might be to assess 
   co-working.)

2) Is the current EGP work mature enough so that the IGP work
   will be complementary?  Should we hold off the IGP work so that
   we can build in "lessons learned" from the EGP work? 

3) The I-Ds related to this workplan connote "white box" 
   mechanisms to characterize the device under test.
   (E.g., SPF Computation Time)  The BMWG has traditionally 
   restricted its purview to black-box (device external) heuristics.  
   Is this a can of worms we wish to open?
