Hi Victor,
Just one quick comment!
You say in section 3
Additionally, the BGP-LS speaker can be configured to send the

But this would go against RFC6805, which says in section 4.4
The topology and available resources within the child domain do

Transferring all information to parent PCE, would make it an "all
seeing eye" which was never its intention.
