Speaking as WG member:

I agree totally with Ketan and, at least in my case, stems from the fact that 
I’m less familiar with IS-IS than OSPF. 

If there are WG participants who have both the IS-IS expertise and bandwidth, 
this might be a good topic for an informational draft. 

We certainly shouldn’t stale this work as documenting the vagaries of IS-IS 
wasn’t within original purpose or scope of this document. 

Thanks,
Acee
