A comment that I made over on the MPLS list.

I am not convinced that MRT has the degree of maturity that we would 
normally
require for a routing protocol intended for deployment as part of a major
IGP. This is obviously a discussion that needs to happen in RTGWG.

I would therefore suggest that whilst the WG may adopt this component
draft, it needs to sequence publication behind a number of the main MRT
drafts and set the track accordingly.
