Generally, when we're talking about whether a draft that utilizes BFD belongs in BFD or not, the deciding criteria is usually whether there's changes to the BFD protocol itself. I believe in these cases we'd be making use of existing p2mp BFD procedures rather than extending them. In that case, we'd normally suggest the work live in the related protocol Working Group. Part of BFD's charter is to help review uses of BFD in such protocols, so even if the work was happening in the related multicast working groups, the chairs of those groups are welcome to request simultaneous review in BFD during last call. -- Jeff
