Re: [RRG] Comments on the Design Goals I-D

Tony, i meant that "table size" and "stretch" are not the only knobs  
you have to tune a routing system. For instance, the table size also  
depends on the address and aggregation schemes used.
Alternative schemes to IPv4+BGP might not only reduce the table size,  
but also decrease route length compared to BGP.
