Dear Sue and WG,

I would like to reiterate one major issue with this draft in the current
form.

Route Targets have been formally defined in RFC4360 as an extended
community with high order octet of  0x00, 0x01, or 0x02 and low order octet
of 0x02.

There are documents which do not formally update RFC4360, but define new
high order octet extended community values and also call it  Route Targets.
They usually reuse low-order octet value of 0x02.

The intention of this draft is to extend the notion of the Route Targets to
cover any extended community with low-order octet value of 0x02 claiming
this is de-facto unwritten standard.

So with the above we have few options here:

Option 1 - We make an update to RFC4360 redefining RT as any high-order
octet value with low-order octet of 0x02 then proceed with this draft.

or alternatively

Option 2 - Redefine this draft as a generic derived community where
low-order octet is 0x02 without calling it RT.

or alternatively

Option 3 - Collect all documents which define RT with different high-order
octet then 0x00, 0x01, or 0x02 and add them as a list to update RFC4360.
And keep doing this each time someone wants to define a new high order
octet type and call it RT.

Kind regards,
Robert
