Re: [mpls-linux-devel] interesting article

Disclaimer: I'm not a bookreviewer or anything like that so take my impression
with a grain of salt:

It was interesting.  I'm not sure what he was trying to do with the article.
I think he wanted to write about all sorts of cool hardware-techy-stuff,
but found he had to explain too much about how these MPLS services work.
Which he really didn't go into that deep, but he did try and get one main
idea across, all labels above the tunnel label only have meaning to the
indirectly connect devices that exchanged the information.  The result is
that he ran out of room to talk about anything 'cool' :-)
His tables of NHLFE, ILM, FTN are an absolute horror to look at.
