Hi,

I support the adoption of this draft as WG document.

However the new text authors added between -00 and -01 seems too 
restrictive to the original theme/direction.

It says:

".. or the AS_PATH attribute of the flow specification is empty."

That precludes injecting and honoring the flow routes even within the 
same administrative domain in the presence of confederations.

I recommend that this limitation should be removed in next version.

Regards,
R.
