All,
A new rev of the draft has been published. Changes resulted from
feedback from Acee (much thanks!) and include:
- Editorial/nit changes
- To better support current implementation, changed:
"the O-bit *MUST* NOT be set in packets other than Database
Description packets."
To
"the O-bit *SHOULD* NOT be set and SHOULD be ignored when received
in packets other than Database Description packets."
That's it.

Subject: I-D ACTION:draft-ietf-ospf-rfc2370bis-01.txt
A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories.
This draft is a work item of the Open Shortest Path First IGP
Working Group of the IETF.
Title : The OSPF Opaque LSA Option
Author(s) : L. Berger, et al.
Filename : draft-ietf-ospf-rfc2370bis-01.txt
Pages : 16
Date : 2007-6-4
This document defines enhancements to the OSPF protocol to support a
new class of link-state advertisements (LSA) called Opaque LSAs.
Opaque LSAs provide a generalized mechanism to allow for the future
extensibility of OSPF. Opaque LSAs consist of a standard LSA header
followed by application-specific information. The information field
may be used directly by OSPF or by other applications. Standard OSPF
link-state database flooding mechanisms are used to distribute Opaque
LSAs to all or some limited portion of the OSPF topology.
This document replaces RFC 2370 and adds to it a mechanism to enable
an OSPF router to validate AS-scope opaque LSAs originated outside of
the router's OSPF area.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
