Re: [Idr] WGLC on draft-ietf-idr-as-private-reservation-00

[Jon Mitchell <[e-mail]>]

This was discussed upfront with WG chairs from both initially, and I
agree it is odd that you would bring it up at this late date.  I
personally believe that this an update of RFC 1930 which was IDR product
and a bit out of GROW charter since the focus of this draft is not about
global Internet.  IDR charter includes support for four-octet AS numbers
in BGP, and I believe it fits well into that.  IDR description also
states it supports use of BGP-4 by IPv4 and IPv6 networks, which this
draft continues to make room for growth in the use of the protocol
outside of Internet use cases.  Also this draft is a reservation
document, not an operations document, but I agree also not a protocol
extension of any kind.

I'm not against a GROW review (maybe one of the chairs, AD or IESG will
recommend it anyway), however it also appears many of the active
participants of GROW have already participated in the discussion.
