Hi WG, 
This draft was presented at the IETF meeting in Chicago. The draft has been updated as following:
    
Misc. editorial changes and updated references.
Clarified tunnels for forward and reverse LSPs and updated error handling.
Alignment with the draft-ietf-pce-association-group-04
- Removed previous restriction, both endpoint PCCs can now initiate the double-sided association. 
- Added text to clarify the bidirectional association is operator configured (and Association ID range TLV is not used)

Welcome your review comments and suggestions.

Hi Chairs,
This is a fairly straight-forward extension of RSVP RFC7551 for PCE. We like to request WG adoption for this draft.

Thanks,
Rakesh

    Abstract:
       The Path Computation Element Communication Protocol (PCEP) provides
       mechanisms for Path Computation Elements (PCEs) to perform path
       computations in response to Path Computation Clients (PCCs) requests.
        The Stateful PCE extensions allow stateful control of Multiprotocol
       Label Switching (MPLS) Traffic Engineering (TE) Label Switched Paths
       (LSPs) using PCEP.
    
       This document defines PCEP extensions for grouping two reverse
       unidirectional MPLS TE LSPs into an Associated Bidirectional LSP when
       using a Stateful PCE for both PCE-Initiated and PCC-Initiated LSPs as
       well as when using a Stateless PCE.

    Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission
    until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.
