[c-nsp] [External] SDx open standard?

Perhaps that, and also, I think they may be substituting that term "mef" for
"ce" more recently.  ....perhaps to imply that its capabilities are now
beyond the "metro" and extend into "carrier" space and beyond.  Trying to
make some educated guesses/recollections.

In fairness, that term is almost entirely absent from the web site, as far
as I can see.

Is it an expansion that's been deliberately dropped in the face of expanding
to work on SDN, NDV, et al beyond their original Metro Ethernet scope?  And
now MEF is just MEF?

Tim.
