Hello Tony, 

here are my comments to the design goals document:

1. Section 3.1 Improved routing scalability

You talk about "the control plane", but it is unclear what is the
Internets control plane? RFC 1958 that was referred in section 2 doesn't
mention anything about the control plane. Is FIB in your definition on
control plane? So, do you think that the solution should support the
scalability of FIBs? RIB is in my opinion on the routing control plane?
But what about the DNS? Is flow control on the control plane that the
document addresses? 

2. Section 3.4 Scalable support for mobility

Is this document only about the global routing, and not applicable to
intra domain nor MANET type of routing? Maybe the context should be
defined somewhere, preferably in the introduction. 

I do not think that there is a consensus whether mobility is part of the
global routing system. Why should it be?
 
3. Maybe section 3.10 Deployment

I am wondering why the interdomain policy aspects have been left out. In
order to be incrementally deployable the current policy/business
relationships should be supported: customer, peering and transit
relationships. At least on the architecture level. 
  

Best regards
Hannu
