Re: [OSPF] Anycast Extension to OSPFv3 draft-wang-aospf-00

Hi Abhay,

I agree with the analysis on Acee and Russ on the draft. I have myself
not read the draft yet though.

On another front I must state that Acee has been trying to help and
promote new people in the working group and I have seen that happen
explicitly in some cases and would want to vouch for that.

Thanks,
Vishwas
