I think the path vector format is a valuable addition to ALTO. Sorry, I have not followed the routing state abstraction recently but looking at the document right now I find the current wording rather difficult to read. For instance, it lacks intuitive engineering examples. But clarity could possibly be improved after WG adoption.

Subject: Call for adoption: Adopting graph representation format deliverables

Folks: As the (draft) minutes [1] of IETF 96 reflect, there was general consensus on adoption of path vector and routing state abstraction documents towards the charter deliverable of graph representation formats in ALTO.

The chairs will like to start a call for adoption of the two documents
--- https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-yang-alto-path-vector-03 and
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-gao-alto-routing-state-abstraction-03
--- as deliverables towards the charter item.

Note that there remains some ambiguity (in the chair's mind) on whether, once adopted, these will proceed as two drafts or whether they will be merged in one.  The authors of these drafts are urged to provide clarity on the evolution of these documents.

The call for adoption runs for two weeks, from Mon Aug 1, 2016 to Mon Aug 15, 2016.  This will be a good time to comment on the list and inform the working group of any issues with adopting these items, or whether the working group was remiss in considering other documents.
Please post to the list.  (Even a simple "I support these documents towards charter deliverable" is a good indication.)

Thanks,
