The document does not yet reflect the consensus
generated at the Beijing meeting on treating
updates with AS_SET as having indeterminable origin AS.

Quoting the document:
** Begin quote:
//origin_as is NONE if the AS_PATH begins with a non-trivial
//AS_SET and has no [AS4_]AGGREGATOR attribute.
...
...
4. Route Aggregation

When an UPDATE message carries AGGREGATOR attribute, 
the "UPDATE origin AS number" is set to the value encoded in 
the AGGREGATOR instead of being derived from the AS_PATH attribute.
** End quote.

The above quoted statements in the document contradict said consensus.
