Thanks!
I removed two items though, as I suspect they may be incorrect:

* What exactly is a "Router"? I suspect that it is a "Resource" with
dynamic switching capability. Is that correct? I removed it from the row
'cross connect', as I don't suspect you use the terms 'cross connect'
and 'router' interchangeably

* I removed "Topology + Group" from Layer, as I suspect you would simply
use the word "Layer" to describe a layer.

What I find interesting, are there concepts that you use but are not in
the table, while they should be used by NML?

In particular, the VXDL UML schema [1] also lists
"VirtualInfrastructure" and "VirtualTopology". Are these totally new
concepts?
