Subject: [Dcpel] moving into a diffserv control plane

So I think we should have made it clear today in our session in
the ops area that it was NOT a BoF and as it was not a BoF,
we thought it would be good to try to elicit more ideas in
the area so that we (collectively) could develop a BoF proposal.

When the DiffServ WG got started (and indeed as is stated in
the initial WG RFCs) the analogy was made to the separation of
forwarding path and control plane as was originally done in
the development of the internet. So we figured that the forwarding
path diffserv mechanisms would initially be deployed in a static
way (like static routes). But it seems like now it is time to
move on to the diffserv control plane equivalent of RIP. How
do we want to dynamically change the edge of a diffserv
domain to reflect policies and conditions as they evolve?
