Hi Anand/Acee,

I finally got the chance to review the second version of 
the draft draft-lindem-ospfv3-dest-filter-01.txt.

I don't have any objections about the draft but I am still
not convinced about the usefulness of the solution.  Why
couldn't someone just install some ACL rules to do the
same.  Moreover, the solution does not work with the virtual
links (I agree that they are not widely used but..).  I 
think, it is really an implementation detail about where 
to drop these packets.  Ofcourse, I have no objection in 
publishing this as an informational or BCP.

Editorial comments:
- Every sentense should start with 2 spaces after the "."
  (general rule about the IETF documents)

- In the references section, the names should be listed
  as "Gill, V., J. Heasley, and D. Meyer" (first author
  is last-name first-initial and other authors are first-
  initial last-name.)

- "This document is an Internet-Draft and is in full 
   conformance with all provisions of Section 10 of 
   RFC2026." is now "By submitting this Internet-Draft, I 
   certify that any applicable patent or other IPR claims 
   of which I am aware have been disclosed, and any of 
   which I become aware will be disclosed, in accordance 
   with RFC 3668."

- s/the propsed destination/the proposed destination 
  in section 2.1

Regards
Mukesh
