<http://http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-dunbar-trill-directory-assisted-edge-05>

We've discussed earlier versions of this document in the WG in the past, 
and it seems like useful information for a technique that helps with ARP 
and ND scaling. It does not include any protocol changes or extensions.

The document is intended as an informational document (it says "Intended 
status: Standard Track" but that is incorrect) explaining how 
directories can fit into TRILL.

Note that there is claimed IPR associated with the draft:
<https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/1788/>

Please send comments to the TRILL list before June 27.

Thanks,
    Erik
