Zafar,
	My comment in today's session was that you are redefining the format of
an existing object (by adding TLVs) this breaks compatibility.  You
stated that this wasn't the case.

FWIW:

Your document says:

Perhaps you meant C-Type(TBD).  You should address compatibility
explicitly in any case.
