#DETAILED COMMENTS
#=================
## classified as [minor] and [major]

173        MPLS Fast Reroute [RFC4090], [RFC5286] and [RFC7490] is a useful and
174        widely deployed tool for minimizing packet loss in the case of a link
175        or node failure.

[minor]
We should add the most advanced flavor of LFA
draft-ietf-rtgwg-segment-routing-ti-lfa-17 in this FRR list.

319        misordering, and allow for fragmentation.  In this case, the first
320        nibble the data that immediately follows after the MPLS BoS is set to
321        0000b to identify the presence of PW CW.

[minor]
the "0000b" threw me off-guard. Maybe better to say "0000 (binary)" to align
with formal writing conventions.

What about considering a to reference section 2.:
"   If the first nibble of a PW packet carried over an MPLS PSN has a
   value of 0, this indicates that the packet starts with a PWMCW."

330        Bit Index Explicit Replication (BIER) [RFC8296] traffic can also be
331        encapsulated over MPLS.  In this case, BIER has defined 0101b as the
332        value for the first nibble in the data that immediately appears after
