Glad you feel that way.

But there was also concerns about slowing the process down. And the co-authors 
(Albert and I) don’t think it should move from RFC6833.

So there isn’t concensus. And I don’t believe it is even rough concensus.

Section 16 is “Mobility Considerations” that discusses various forms of how 
EIDs can change RLOCs. And it sets up for different designs that are already 
documented in various documents. But Mobility certainly shouldn’t go in an OAM 
document. 

Section 17 discusses where xTRs (data-plane boxes) should reside in the 
network. And sets up for a more detail discussion which is in the Deployment 
RFC.

Section 18 is “Traceroute Considerations”, this arguably can go into an OAM 
document. But it would be 3 pages. And then one would argue there are other OAM 
mechanisms spread across LISP documents that could go in an OAM document.

This will not take 1/2 hour.

And I’m finding it hard to see the value in doing all this busy work. We have 
already accomplished separating data-plane text from control-plane text. We 
achieved that goal from the charter.
