Hi Tom,

In my personal opinion, for network virtualization, I don't see much value in 
GRE in UDP. Each new encapsulation takes a lot of effort and time before it 
achieves ecosystem support (from software to hardware to offloads) to make it a 
viable option. We already have VXLAN/GPE so I am not sure what we gain with GRE 
in UDP over VXLAN/VXLAN-GPE. There may be scenarios outside of network 
virtualization, where this may be useful, but I am not familiar with those.

Thanks
Pankaj
