Also, what is the intention of this document?  BCP, at best,
or perhaps even informational?  I would think the latter like
RFC 3330.  It's current status is currently labeled as "Standards
Track", which I suspect is a bit off base.

my fault. I found that too when doing the ID-nits. Intent was informational or BCP. will be fixed in -02.


Some other nits:

2.6.  Default Route

The default unicast route (::) may be advertised in an IGP. It must
   not be advertised in an EGP unless it has been requested by the
   recipient.

How does one request a default route?

well, that was the suggestion text from someone who provided comment on the previous version. The intent of the suggestion was to avoid the use of "downstream" which is ambiguous. Do you have any suggestion for text?



2.8.  Unknown addresses

   Any non listed address above must not be advertised and should be
filtered out. Future work might reserve additional address space for
   protocol use which might require specific routing guidelines.  The
reader should refer to newer versions of the normative references in
   this document to verify the existence of newer protocol address
   space.

Where would operators find such a list if we're recommending they
filter these address spaces?

it currently says newer versions of the normative references (that is one way one can do and find).
Any suggestion?


In section 3.0 in addition to the BCP 84 reference, a BCP 38
reference should be included.

ok. agreed. will add.
