We have draft-ietf-ospf-ospfv3-traffic-01.txt describing
OSPFv3 traffic engineering TLVs. A new TLV, Router Address TLV,
is proposed to carry a single routable IPv6 address.

Additionally, at the last IETF, a new draft was presented,
draft-raggarwa-ospf-te-node-addr-00.txt, which proposes the
advertisement of multiple routable addresses. There seemed to
be agreement that the draft was a logical extension of
RFC 3630 and there was no opposition.

It seems that if we accept the node address draft we should
modify the OSPFv3 traffic engineering draft to add the
requirement for a node address TLV specifying at least one
routable IPv6 address.
