[LES:] I have responded to Alvaro - please let me know if my response addresses 
your concern.

[LES:] I addressed Menachem's comments in V4 of the draft. Please let me know 
if those changes are satisfactory.

[LES:] I am unclear as to what is causing your confusion. The text in Section 2 
states:

"Two methods for determining inter-AS paths are currently being discussed. The 
per-domain method [RFC5152] determines the path one domain at a time. The 
backward recursive method [RFC5441] uses cooperation between PCEs to determine 
an optimum inter-domain path. The sections that follow examine how inter-AS TE 
link information could be useful in both cases."

The two methods are explicitly named and an RFC reference provided for each. 
Section 2.2 then discusses the per-domain method in more detail and Section 2.3 
discusses the backward recursive method in more detail.

Please help me understand why you find this confusing.

[LES:] OK

[LES:] OK
