Hi Ketan,

Quite the opposite ... I am referring to the Standards Track content ..
especially in respect to the IDR draft:

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-mishra-idr-v4-islands-v6-core-4pe/

I do not find anything new in it that would not have already been
standardized. Especially I see lot's of text verbatim copied from RFC8950.

As far as BESS drafts I refrain from commenting as those drafts are IMO
unreadable. If you have an abstract spanning 3 pages and a quote to list
over 30 references that is right there not a good sign.

Thx,
R.
