The issue of the appropriate format for the textual representation of  
32-bit AS numbers appears to a matter of continuing comment, and there  
have been some calls for the IETF to adopt a standard representation  
for 32-bit AS numbers in the same way that RFC4291 defines a standard  
textual representation of IPv6 addresses. The appropriate WG for this  
work appears to be the IDR working group, and I would like to request  
that the WG considers draft-huston-as-representation-00.txt for  
adoption as a Working Group draft.

regards,
