Hi,

as I was unable to make my comments during the presentation, let me put 
them here:


When we started with the flex-algo work, there has been a lengthy 
discussion on why not to use the multi-topology (MT) instead. We always 
wanted flex-algo to be light weight and as a result easy to deploy and 
manage. I believe that was one of the reasons why flex-algo has been 
successfully deployed. We do not want to loose that very property of the 
flex-algo architecture.

What you are proposing is what MT was invented for and we do not want 
flex-algo to become a new version of MT.

You have two ways to solve your problem:

a) use MT

b) if you want to solve your problem with flex-algo, please use what 
already exists in flex-algo. Please look at 
draft-ietf-lsr-flex-algo-bw-con as others have pointed out.


thanks,
Peter
