I had a chat about this draft with Stig at the IETF meeting in Taipei.
He clarified how PIM PORT connections can be shared across address
families.

I believe the following text change would resolve my concern with the draft.

OLD:
If two neighbors announce the same transport (TCP or SCTP) and the same
Connection IDs in the IPv4 and IPv6 Hello messages, then only one
connection is established and is shared. Otherwise, two connections
are established and are used separately.

NEW:
If two neighbors announce the same transport (TCP or SCTP) and the same
Connection IDs in the IPv4 and IPv6 Hello messages, then only one
connection is established and is shared. Otherwise, two connections
are established and are used separately.

Please note that the Connection ID AFI in the PORT Hello Option does not
need to match the address family of PIM Hello message that carries it.
e.g. an IPv6 PIM Hello message could contain a PORT Hello Option with a
TCP Connection ID AFI of 1 (IPv4).

Thanks
Suresh
