The question is whether we add such “gaps” to 6434-bis, or spin up a new draft to update 8200, which might then be reflected in a future Node Reqs update.

I’m easy either way as an author of the doc, but would err towards minimising adding new material to 6434-bis, and trying where possible to just point to existing documents. 

Some input from the chairs would be welcome.
