[Speaking as a WG member]

Hi Shishio,

I guess I didn't read this close enough the first time.

Due to its simplicity, I think the R-bit should be the preferred option. Since 
all OSPFv3 implementations should support the R-bit, there are no compatibility 
issues. Does everyone agree? 

The only value I can see in using the high-link metric is that it allows the 
existing implementations you cite to say they conform this draft.  Is that 
worth having two mechanisms? 

Thanks,
Acee
