Hi Andrew,

I took a quick look at draft-alston-spring-crh-bgp-signalling-00.  In 
Section 3.1, there is the following:

   "Since SIDs in the context of a compressed routing header can be
    either 16bit of 32bit, the attribute value MUST be either 2 or 4 and
    the attribute MUST be ignored if this is not the case."

Where does the 2 or 4 come from?  Is the draft trying to specify that 
the compressed routing header is malformed if the attribute value is 
not 2 or 4?

Regards,
S. Moonesamy
