[Lsr] draft-ietf-lsr-flex-algo

[[e-mail]]

Hi all,

Better safe than sorry, I guess. 

FYI, in -08 (a year ago) draft introduced one single iteration of the FA acronym: "The scope of the FA computation is an area"

Do we really want to create that FA acronym for Flex Algo?

FA has already been used for  Forwarding Adjacency (e.g., [1]) and this could create some ambiguity (e.g., FA link, enable FA...), especially as the domain is the same (IGP routing, TE). 

Alternatively, FX or FxA could be used for FlexAlgo (athough this would not match with FAD), or no acronym defined since we did not used one for the first 3 years.
