Dear the chairs,

See inline below >>

From: BIER [mailto:bier-bounces@ietf.org] On Behalf Of Greg Shepherd

Subject: [Bier] Direction: draft-xie-bier-ipv6-encapsulation

draft-xie-bier-ipv6-encapsulation authors,

To date, there has been insufficient support on the list to adopt the draft. It is the BIER WG position at this time that a review by the 6man WG should take place before any further discussion in the BIER WG.

Can you confirm that we are not allowed to discuss about this draft in BIER WG -- Either solely BIER related issues, or cross-WG issues ?

6MAN WG review aside, the draft still raises significant technical concerns within the BIER WG. Adding replication information into a programmatic header does NOT add replication to programmatic forwarding path, nor programmatics to your replication forward path. It is at this point where replication begins that all prograrmmatics cease due to the multi-point nature of replication.  We have a nearly three decades of experience trying to use unicast semantics to describe multi-point forwarding, and sometimes learning from the past requires leaving it.

Thanks you,
Chairs
