Could you (or someone else who has this working) publish an ID which describes how site-locals work? I've seen many postings on various aspects of site-locals which do not work as currently defined, from DNS to routing to applications using site-locals in referrals. There have been some proposals on how to address some of these issues, such as updates to dynamic routing protocols, but others (like DNS) don't seem to have any agreed upon solutions in multi-sited configurations and, arguably in the case of DNS, single-sited configurations. Without standards, or at least standards-track IDs, its hard to see how site-locals can be viewed as useful beyond a single-site configuration, with anything beyond that being experimental and/or proprietary.
