Can you be my proxy to the P4 system for a short while? ;->
I have a feeling it will be a while before i set it up. So i would
prefer to work in diff -du mode.

Are you doing a write up? 
I was going to create a "l2c_hello" to show how to create a netlink L2C.
If I focus on that you can use it to write the MPLS L2C. Let me know.
I think the write up will still be useful regardless of who is doing
what.

What was the final decision regarding labelspaces ?

I think we are still gray in this area. My thoughts were device
labelspaces would be valuable if you have something in the packet header
that clearly distinguishes which labelspace to use.
James had other thoughts.
