What I said is that the solution is by no means specific to 2547 - 
it is applicable to any multipoint-to-point application.

What I said is that the document needs to explain why extending BGP 
for multipoint-to-point L2TP signaling is preferred to the existing L2TP 
signaling (or extending L2TP to provide multipoint-to-point signaling) ?
