Hi Qin,

Thank you for the feedback on the draft. See my answers to your questions inline below.

This has been a longer discussion in the IDR working group and it has been decided that IPv6 FS should remain a separate document. Since this rfc5575-bis is not targeted to introduce new functionality and implementations of RFC5575 can easily adopt rfc5575-bis. At the same time we also agreed that we want to finalise FS IPv6 shortly after the -bis.

The 20-bit numeric value fits into a 4-byte value. (8-byte len=11 is fine (the draft has a SHOULD there) but inefficient and not recommended).

I will put that on the list for potential changes.

Thanks
