I'd like to restart the discussion so that we can move forward on this I-D.

This draft IMHO is about EBGP only, so 3. does not make sense, as IBGP
policies are inherently different than EBGP policies.

We worded the draft specifically to apply to IPv4/IPv6 unicast AFI/SAFI
for EBGP, as most implementations (or at least the ones I'm familiar with),
already restrict other families.

However, rewording the text to cover all AFI/SAFI for EBGP would cover
all cases and clarify if certain implementations did allow other families.
If I were running EBGP between my own ASs, then I would want the strictest
defaults possible.

To hopefully increase the speed to allow operators to ask for this
behavior from their vendors, starting the thread on one of the points
still open from the presentation today:

1.  Current draft - IPv4/IPv6 unicast AFI/SAFI EBGP only
2.  All AFI/SAFI - EBGP only
3.  All AFI/SAFI - IBGP/EBGP

I think #1 makes sense as it's limited to global Internet table
protection.  I also think it would be useful to protect our internal
networks from errors with #3.  However since internal networks often use
eBGP (see large-scale DC, seamless MPLS, inter-as Option-C), I think it
would be a bit odd to cover all AFI/SAFI for EBGP only as it now covers
some internal network applications as well (widening the requirements of
what the draft is trying to achieve) w/o fulfilling protecting them
fully by covering IBGP.
