I think the draft is a bit optimistic with respect to its claim of satisfying homenet requirements. For example, there is a very limited set of multi-homing topologies where the internal routers don't find themselves asking, "Which way is up?". Additionally, without source routing, I don't see how ingress filtering can be avoided. Perhaps multi-homing should be removed. Thanks, Acee
