This draft provides a useful mechanism for limiting the scope of
routing information that is needed only for localized traffic
engineering (where localized can span continents and indeed does in a
well known example of intended usage).  The use of AS_HOPCOUNT and
NO_EXPORT together as described in the draft provides a transition
mechanism that will prevent any significant harm to the network as a
result of partial deployment of this feature.

I agree with the proposal that draft-li-as-hopcount-03.txt should
become a WG document.

Subject: [Idr] AS hopcount draft

All,

After our Paris discussion, the AS hopcount draft has been modified  
as discussed to include a 4 byte AS number as part of the attribute  
to aid in debugging.  I would like to propose that this become a WG  
document at this point.  If folks have objections to this or  
comments, could you please voice them by Monday, 10/31 (boo!).

The current draft can be found here:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-li-as-hopcount-03.txt

Thanks,
Joe, Rex & Tony
