This draft has been presented at two IETFs and while I don’t agree with
some of the proposed use cases as these applications reference should, if
fact, be standardized, I can see that the use case for local applications
could be compelling. This is the use where OSPF provides an API for local
applications to advertise application-specific information throughout the
routing domain and receive the same parameters from other routers running
that application. Since this is to support local applications generically,
one could see the reason to allow non-standard parameters to be flooded
opaquely (i.e., OSPF is used solely as a flooding mechanism).

Please take a look at the draft and indicate whether or not you feel the
OSPF WG should work on such a solution. If there is enough interest, we
will adopt it as a WG document.

Thanks,
Acee
