I also don't see much NSP participation in the relevant standards bodies about signaling in optical networks.

Probably because the said standards bodies (and on-demand fiber capacity allocation in general) have little relevance to the NSPs and Internet backbones in general? --vadim PS I keep wondering why people keep reinventing virtual circuits.
