Hi Med,

Thanks for the quick update but I have one additional comment on the registry specification:
I suggest adding the following paragraphs after the registry table:

NEW:
   Requests to add a new value to the registry MUST include the
   following information:

   o  Identifier: The name of the ALTO cost mode.

   o  Intended Semantics: A document defining a new cost mode must
      indicate how costs should be interpreted (Section 6.1.2 of [RFC7285]).
      For example, the "numerical" cost mode indicates the costs are
      interpreted as values on which numerical operations can be applied.

Best,
Kai

&gt; &gt; Objet&nbsp;: Shepherd review for draft-ietf-alto-cost-mode-01
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; Dear WG and authors of draft-ietf-alto-cost-mode,
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; I am posting this review of draft-ietf-alto-cost-mode-01 to the
&gt; &gt; mailing list, as part of my shepherd write-up. Any comments and
&gt; &gt; feedback are more than welcome!
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; Best,
&gt; &gt; Kai
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; ===================
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; This draft extends the base ALTO protocol (RFC 7285) by relaxing
&gt; &gt; the constraint on valid cost mode values and introducing a new
&gt; &gt; IANA (sub-)registry to document new cost mode values. The
&gt; &gt; motivation is clear and the proposed mechanism is clean. Most
&gt; &gt; comments raised in Call for Adoption and WGLC are addressed in the
&gt; &gt; latest revision except Dhruv's comment [1] on giving more detailed
&gt; &gt; specifications of the contents in IANA registry. There are two
&gt; &gt; remaining comments and I think the draft is ready for publication
&gt; &gt; once they are addressed.
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; Comments:
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; Section 3.1, last paragraph: The paragraph says
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt;    Future documents that define a new cost mode SHOULD indicate
&gt; &gt; whether
&gt; &gt;    that new cost mode applies to all or a subset of cost metrics.
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; In that case, it seems to me that the default behavior should be
&gt; &gt; specified in case the applicability of the new cost mode is not
&gt; &gt; indicated. Either the "SHOULD" keyword is replaced by "MUST" or an
&gt; &gt; additional sentence is required, e.g.,
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; NEW:
&gt; &gt;     If not explicitly specified, the new cost mode applies to all
&gt; &gt; cost metrics.
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; Section 4:
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; I also agree with Dhruv's comment that the contents of the "ALTO
&gt; &gt; Cost Modes"
&gt; &gt; registry should be better specified. While the initial entries set
&gt; &gt; good examples of how to register a new cost mode, it can still be
&gt; &gt; helpful if the format and content of each field are specified in
&gt; &gt; more details, e.g., using similar specifications in Sections 14.2
&gt; &gt; and 14.3 of RFC 7285 (as suggested by Dhruv).
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; I also suggest renaming the "Specification" field to "Intended
&gt; &gt; Semantics", to be consistent with other ALTO registries (in RFC
&gt; &gt; 7285 and in the unified property draft).
