Hi WG,
Just read another mail about Errata process 
<https://ietf.org/about/groups/iesg/statements/processing-rfc-errata/>
It reminds me about a very old Errata raised 1 year before. 
I have this confusion about the text of RFC6625 (as raised in the Errata) even 
longer before when the RFC8534 (updates this 6625) was in its very early 
version.
Please the WG have a look and give comments/discussions/suggestions on it.

Thanks
Jingrong

Subject: [Technical Errata Reported] RFC6625 (5605)

The following errata report has been submitted for RFC6625, "Wildcards in 
Multicast VPN Auto-Discovery Routes".

--------------------------------------
You may review the report below and at:

Type: Technical
Reported by: Jingrong Xie <[email protected]>

Section: 3.2.1

Original Text
-------------
      - If there is an installed S-PMSI A-D route originated by PE2,
        whose NLRI contains (C-S,C-G), then (C-S,C-G) matches that
        route.

      - Otherwise, if there is an installed S-PMSI A-D route originated
        by PE2, whose NLRI contains (C-S,C-*), AND if C-G is an SSM
        multicast group address, then (C-S,C-G) matches that route.

      - Otherwise, if there is an installed S-PMSI A-D route originated
        by PE2, whose NLRI contains (C-*,C-G), AND if C-G is an ASM
        multicast group address, then (C-S,C-G) matches that route.

      - Otherwise, if there is an installed S-PMSI A-D route originated
        by PE2, whose NLRI contains (C-*,C-*), then (C-S,C-G) matches
        that route.

Notes
-----
The 'Match for data reception' is an behavior on the MVPN receiver-site PE. If 
an SPMSI A-D route is matched for data reception, it means that the 
receiver-site PE will respond to this SPMSI A-D route, either send a responded 
Leaf A-D route in case there is an explicit-tracking flag (LIR or LIRpF), or 
join the PMSI tunnel in the SPMSI A-D route in case the tunnel type is mLDP/PIM 
etc. This usage of 'match for data reception' is not explicitly explained in 
this RFC but it is used in <draft-ietf-bess-mvpn-expl-track-13>. 
There is clear inclusive-selective relationship between S-PMSI A-D (*,*) and 
S-PMSI A-D(S,G).
Thinking the S-PMSI A-D (*,*) as an Inclusive one, the receiver site PE with a 
(C-S,C-G) state should keep its join state on both the S-PMSI A-D (*,*) and 
S-PMSI A-D(S,G), and setup the 'reception state' on both the (*,*) PMSI-tunnel 
and (S,G) PMSI-tunnel. So the 'match for reception' should be one or more SPMSI 
A-D routes.  The 'if/othersize/othersize' sentences make the wrong meaning.
