(draft-ietf-rift-kv-tie-structure-and-processing)

Authors,

While reviewing this document during AUTH48, please resolve (as necessary) the 
following
questions, which are also in the source file.

1) <!--[rfced] Tony, we note that the email address used in this document
does not match your email addresses as they appear here:
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://datatracker.ietf.org/person/Tony*20Przygienda__;JQ!!NpxR!g2r540mi05sUS4XCIajxx4ubLhMmveiSk-R9wqI3OEW_RapTaFEFFgzZ83qOryc45ApVIxoMqnB8NtHP4-EVRew$

Which email address would you like to appear in the RFC?
-->

      jhead>> Spoke with Tony, the HPE e-mail is correct.


2) <!--[rfced] May we clarify this citation as follows?

Original:
  [RIFT-AUTO-EVPN] is an example of this type of implementation.

Perhaps:
  For example, [RIFT-AUTO-EVPN] describes this type of implementation.
-->

      jhead>> Good with this.

3) <!-- [rfced] Please review whether this note should be in the <aside> 
element.
It is defined as "a container for content that is semantically less important
or tangential to the content that surrounds it"
(https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://authors.ietf.org/en/rfcxml-vocabulary*aside__;Iw!!NpxR!g2r540mi05sUS4XCIajxx4ubLhMmveiSk-R9wqI3OEW_RapTaFEFFgzZ83qOryc45ApVIxoMqnB8NtHP6jMKCS0$
 ).

Original:
   *NOTE:*Like [RFC9692], this section uses terms to denote
   directionality, specifically, "northbound" meaning "toward the top of
   the fabric" and "southbound" meaning "toward the bottom of the
   fabric".
-->

      jhead>> Yes, <aside> works here.

4) <!--[rfced] In Figure 6, is the second comma necessary?

Original:
  |     (System ID,
  |      Level),

Perhaps:
  |     (System ID,
  |      Level)
—>

      jhead>> A matter of taste really, it can be removed.

5) <!-- [rfced] Three lines in Figure 9 exceeded the 69-character line limit.
We updated as follows; please let us if they should be modified otherwise.

Original:
/// given a system ID delivers the bits set by the according Bloom Filter in the
southbound
/// key value target.
pub (crate) fn target2bits(target: UnsignedSystemID) -> KeyValueTargetType {
    (0 as usize .. 3)
        .map(|s| {
            let rot = (target ^ RANDOMSEEDS[s]).rotate_left(s as _);
            rot.to_ne_bytes().iter().fold(0, |v: u8, nv| v.rotate_right(4) ^ 
*nv) % 64
        })
        .fold(0, |v, nv| v | (1 << nv))
}

Current:
/// given a system ID delivers the bits set by the according
/// Bloom Filter in the southbound key value target.
pub (crate) fn target2bits(target: UnsignedSystemID) ->
KeyValueTargetType {
    (0 as usize .. 3)
        .map(|s| {
            let rot = (target ^ RANDOMSEEDS[s]).rotate_left(s as _);
            rot.to_ne_bytes().iter().fold(0,
                            |v: u8, nv| v.rotate_right(4) ^ *nv) % 64
        })
        .fold(0, |v, nv| v | (1 << nv))
}
-->

      jhead>> This is fine.

6) <!-- [rfced] Please review the "type" attribute of the sourcecode element in
Section 3.2 in the XML file to ensure correctness. If the current list of
preferred values for "type"
(https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.rfc-editor.org/rpc/wiki/doku.php?id=sourcecode-types__;!!NpxR!g2r540mi05sUS4XCIajxx4ubLhMmveiSk-R9wqI3OEW_RapTaFEFFgzZ83qOryc45ApVIxoMqnB8NtHPsfFFxuk$
 )
does not contain an applicable type, then feel free to let us know.
Also, it is acceptable to leave the "type" attribute not set.

In addition, review each artwork element. Specifically,
should any artwork element be tagged as sourcecode or another
element?
-->

      jhead>> Not setting it is fine. No other figures need to be set as 
<sourcecode>

7) <!-- [rfced] FYI - We have added expansions for the following abbreviations
per Section 3.6 of RFC 7322 ("RFC Style Guide"). Please review each
expansion in the document carefully to ensure correctness.

 Link State Database (LSDB)
 Organizationally Unique Identifier (OUI)
-->

      jhead>> I’m good with your expansions.

8) <!-- [rfced] Please review the "Inclusive Language" portion of the online
Style Guide 
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.rfc-editor.org/styleguide/part2/*inclusive_language__;Iw!!NpxR!g2r540mi05sUS4XCIajxx4ubLhMmveiSk-R9wqI3OEW_RapTaFEFFgzZ83qOryc45ApVIxoMqnB8NtHPTb-pMFc$
 >
and let us know if any changes are needed.  Updates of this nature typically
result in more precise language, which is helpful for readers.

Note that our script did not flag any words in particular, but this should
still be reviewed as a best practice.
-->

      jhead>> No further changes required here. Thanks for the reminder.

Thank you.

Final Review for RFC-to-be 9992 
<draft-ietf-rift-kv-tie-structure-and-processing>

Your document is now available for Final Review (previously AUTH48). Once it
has been reviewed and approved by you and all coauthors, it will be published 
as an RFC.
If an author is no longer available, please see the Unavailable Authors section
(https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://authors.ietf.org/rfc-publication-process*unavailable-authors__;Iw!!NpxR!g2r540mi05sUS4XCIajxx4ubLhMmveiSk-R9wqI3OEW_RapTaFEFFgzZ83qOryc45ApVIxoMqnB8NtHPVYNBkQk$
 ).

You and you coauthors are responsible for engaging other parties
(e.g., Contributors or Working Group) as necessary before providing
your approval.

Planning your review
---------------------

Please review the following aspects of your document:

*  RFC Editor questions

  Please review and resolve any questions raised by the RFC Editor
  that have been included in the XML file as comments marked as
  follows:

  <!-- [rfced] ... -->

  These questions will also be sent in a subsequent email.

*  Changes submitted by coauthors

  Please ensure that you review any changes submitted by your
  coauthors.  We assume that if you do not speak up that you
  agree to changes submitted by your coauthors.

*  Content

  Please review the full content of the document, as this cannot
  change once the RFC is published.  Please pay particular attention to:
  - IANA considerations updates (if applicable)
  - contact information
  - references

*  Copyright notices and legends

  Please review the copyright notice and legends as defined in
  RFC 5378 and the Trust Legal Provisions
  (TLP – 
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://trustee.ietf.org/license-info__;!!NpxR!g2r540mi05sUS4XCIajxx4ubLhMmveiSk-R9wqI3OEW_RapTaFEFFgzZ83qOryc45ApVIxoMqnB8NtHPdp1wxXw$
 ).

*  Semantic markup

  Please review the markup in the XML file to ensure that elements of
  content are correctly tagged.  For example, ensure that <sourcecode>
  and <artwork> are set correctly.  See details at
  
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://authors.ietf.org/rfcxml-vocabulary__;!!NpxR!g2r540mi05sUS4XCIajxx4ubLhMmveiSk-R9wqI3OEW_RapTaFEFFgzZ83qOryc45ApVIxoMqnB8NtHPOACCRDc$
 >.

*  Formatted output

  Please review the PDF, HTML, and TXT files to ensure that the
  formatted output, as generated from the markup in the XML file, is
  reasonable.  Please note that the TXT will have formatting
  limitations compared to the PDF and HTML.


Submitting changes
------------------

To submit changes, please reply to this email using 'REPLY ALL' as all
the parties CCed on this message need to see your changes. The parties
include:

  *  your coauthors

  *  [email protected] (the RPC team)

  *  other document participants, depending on the stream (e.g.,
     IETF Stream participants are your working group chairs, the
     responsible ADs, and the document shepherd).

  *  [email protected], which is an archival mailing list
     to preserve discussion about the document while in the RPC editorial
     queue; it is not an active discussion list:

    *  More info:
       
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/ietf-announce/yb6lpIGh-4Q9l2USxIAe6P8O4Zc__;!!NpxR!g2r540mi05sUS4XCIajxx4ubLhMmveiSk-R9wqI3OEW_RapTaFEFFgzZ83qOryc45ApVIxoMqnB8NtHPRq5grgI$

    *  The archive itself:
       
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/browse/auth48archive/__;!!NpxR!g2r540mi05sUS4XCIajxx4ubLhMmveiSk-R9wqI3OEW_RapTaFEFFgzZ83qOryc45ApVIxoMqnB8NtHPjeFl08g$

    *  Note: If only absolutely necessary, you may temporarily opt out
       of the archiving of messages (e.g., to discuss a sensitive matter).
       If needed, please add a note at the top of the message that you
       have dropped the address. When the discussion is concluded,
       [email protected] will be re-added to the CC list and
       its addition will be noted at the top of the message.

You may submit your changes in one of two ways:

An update to the provided XML file
— OR —
An explicit list of changes in this format

Section # (or indicate Global)

OLD:
old text

NEW:
new text

You do not need to reply with both an updated XML file and an explicit
list of changes, as either form is sufficient.

We will ask a stream manager to review and approve any changes that seem
beyond editorial in nature, e.g., addition of new text, deletion of text,
and technical changes.  Information about stream managers can be found in
the FAQ.  Editorial changes do not require approval from a stream manager.


Approving for publication
