Dear Authors,
Thanks. Then let me abuse your attention and fill another request for the same 
subject.

draft-ietf-bess-srv6-services has been developed in such a way that it does not 
need any changes in all services developed before, including RFC7432, RFC4364, 
RFC4659, and RFC8950.
The only new mechanism that draft-ietf-bess-srv6-services introduces is a 
mapping between 3bytes of "Label Filed" (that should not be changed) and 
16bytes of SID. They have offset and length where to search for "function" to 
extract and put into "Label Field".
The only new information that draft transports is SID structure and attributes. 
It is transported by TLV that is not related to "BGP Path Attributes".
On contrary, all your functionality is inside "BGP Path Attributes", like the 
functionality for RFC7432, RFC4364, RFC4659, and RFC8950.
Hence, the collision has a low probability - they play with different TLV 
("Prefix SID TLV") at the BGP root.
I have read both drafts. IMHO: draft-ietf-bess-srv6-services does not affect 
your draft. You are compatible.
It was probably the intention of draft-ietf-bess-srv6-services authors (not to 
disturb mature BGP services). Let them speak.

Hence, my request:
Could you investigate the possibility to include the claim for compatibility of 
your draft with draft-ietf-bess-srv6-services?
To be ready for interworking with SRv6 services too.
Of course, you could point exact version (-08?) to be sure that your claim is 
valid.

Hi Eduard,

Sounds like a reasonable request to me. We'll look into it for the next version.
Thank you!
Jorge

use cases?
Dear Authors,
You have normative references only for RFC7432 and RFC4364 types of services.
RFC4659<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4659> and 
RFC8950<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8950> are missing in normative 
and informative. Why?

Especially when you effectively included the support for IPv6 AFI inside the 
definition of "ISF SAFI":

The ISF SAFIs are 1 (including IPv4 and IPv6 AFIs), 128 (including IPv4 and 
IPv6 AFIs) and 70 (EVPN, including only AFI 25).

I have read your draft and do not see a problem to claim support for these use 
cases too.
