Re: AD review of: draft-ietf-tewg-interas-mpls-te-req-06.txt (fwd)

[Jim Boyle <jboyle@pdnets.com>]

Raymond, JP, I'm taking a look over the most up to date draft 
draft-ietf-tewg-interas-mpls-te-req-07.txt

and comparing it to Bert's checklist, please see comments inline.

These are very minor nits at this point, so no need to resubmit just
for this at this time.  

Thanks,

Jim

Not done, please remove

to
"interoperable with current intra-AS traffic engineering mechanisms."

What is stated, is what is required.
