Russ - The WG just went through a lengthy consideration of multiple flooding optimization drafts and selected https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lsr-dynamic-flooding/ as the vehicle for the WG to use to move forward in this area.
It would be good if, in the context of the above, you articulated why it makes sense for the WG to do yet another round of such discussion. (Full disclosure: I am a co-author on draft-ietf-lsr-dynamic-flooding - but my question isn't coming from that perspective. ) Les > -----Original Message----- > From: Lsr <[email protected]> On Behalf Of [email protected] > Sent: Sunday, March 31, 2019 1:25 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [Lsr] FW: New Version Notification for draft-white-distoptflood- > 00.txt > > > FYI -- I've put just the flooding optimizations from the openfabric work into > a > separate draft and submitted it.
