Hi Ketan, > I believe you are referring to the "BCP" (of Informational) content of these drafts.
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.
