Adrian, I think this is a straightforward draft that provides valuable functionality, especially SR within an IP (v4 or v6) network as discussed in section 6.2. I certainly support it going forward. I don’t personally have a strong opinion whether MPLS or SPRING is the proper place to pursue the work, as long as it is pursued. I’m happy to let the WG chairs and ADs figure that out.
