For VPLS consider draft-kompella-ppvpn-vpls-01.txt, as it specifies
not just signaling, but autodiscovery/provisioning as well. And,
by the way, it is build upon the same mechanisms as used by L2-Kompella
(draft-kompella-ppvpn-l2vpn-02.txt).

Yakov.

P.S. Lasserre-vKompella seems to be fairly silent on the issue of
autodiscovery for VPLS - the only place where autodiscovery is
mentioned is the Reference section (it contains pointers to both
DNS and BGP as autodiscovery mechanisms).
