I’m not sure that I’m parsing your comments correctly.

We are not proposing an alternative to ASLA.  Nor do we wish to.

What we are proposing is a TLV that is not carried in ASLA.  There is nothing 
after the fact about it.  

As this is a new TLV, there are no backwards compatibility or migration issues. 
As always, legacy nodes will (ok, should) ignore the unrecognized TLV.

That said, I’m now VERY sure that I’m not understanding your comments.  Could 
you please clarify?

Regards,
Tony
