To the extent that the draft defines functionality equivalent to that defined 
in IS-IS RFC 7794 – specifically a means to advertise the source router-id of a 
given advertisement – it defines a necessary and useful extension to the OSPF 
protocol – and I support that work.

However, in its current form the draft discusses use of this mechanism for 
inter-area topology discovery. This idea is seriously flawed – as has been 
discussed extensively on the WG list.
The draft also discusses uses cases related to ERLD, the direction for which is 
very much uncertain at this time.

I therefore feel that the current content of the draft is not what I would 
expect to see approved by the WG as an RFC and therefore have significant 
reservations about moving forward with the existing content.

I do want to see a draft addressing the source router-id advertisement gap move 
forward – and if this draft is reduced to focus on that then I can 
enthusiastically support adoption – but in its current form I cannot indicate 
support.
