(1) What type of RFC is being requested (BCP, Proposed Standard, Internet
Standard, Informational, Experimental, or Historic)? Why is this the proper
type of RFC? Is this type of RFC indicated in the title page header?
The Intended Status is 'Proposed Standard'.
The type of RFC is properly indicated in the title page header.
(2) The IESG approval announcement includes a Document Announcement Write-Up.
Please provide such a Document Announcement Write-Up. Recent examples can be
found in the "Action" announcements for approved documents. The approval
announcement contains the following sections:
This document describes the IS-IS extensions for segment routing for
various IGP segment identifiers laid out in
[I-D.ietf-spring-segment-routing]. All the extensions defined are
muti-topology aware and can support both IPv4 and IPv6 address families
for MPLS data plane. This also describes various router capabilities
needed for these SR extensions.

WG as a whole understand and agree with it?
The draft adoption and progress had received full support from the WG.
(10) Has anyone threatened an appeal or otherwise indicated extreme discontent?
If so, please summarize the areas of conflict in separate email messages to the
Responsible Area Director. (It should be in a separate email because this
questionnaire is publicly available.)
No.
(11) Identify any ID nits the Document Shepherd has found in this document.
(See http://www.ietf.org/tools/idnits/ and the Internet-Drafts Checklist).
Boilerplate checks are not enough; this check needs to be thorough. There are
some warnings form idnits but these are of no consequence. From idnits:
-- Looks like a reference, but probably isn't: '100' on line 1009
'SRGB = [100, 199]...'
-- Looks like a reference, but probably isn't: '199' on line 1009
'SRGB = [100, 199]...'
-- Looks like a reference, but probably isn't: '1000' on line 1010
'[1000, 1099]...'
-- Looks like a reference, but probably isn't: '1099' on line 1010
'[1000, 1099]...'
-- Looks like a reference, but probably isn't: '500' on line 1011
'[500, 599]...'
-- Looks like a reference, but probably isn't: '599' on line 1011
'[500, 599]...'
-- Possible downref: Non-RFC (?) normative reference: ref. 'ISO10589'
Summary: 0 errors (**), 0 flaws (~~), 3 warnings (==), 9 comments (--).
Comments indicated by idnit tool is not a problem as tool is assuming these are
references. Idnits also does not allow that a non-RFC document can be a
normative reference – but clearly ISO 10589 is a normative reference. Hence
none of them is an issue.
These documents have 8 front page authors and given the lengths and involvement
of the authors an exception for the 5 authors rule can be made. However,
authors are still discussing among them on this point (up to responsible AD).
See discussion below:
Jeff and Stephane have graciously agreed to be moved to the Contributors
section (thank you)!
This leaves us with 6 authors - all of whom have made significant contributions
at various stages of the draft work. We would like to proceed with these 6
authors.
Below is a short summary of each author's contributions (including Jeff and
Stephane):
. Stefano - lead editor for the first four years of the draft
. Les - lead editor for the past year. Many in depth reviews during the prior
years . Bruno - Many useful comments during many in depth reviews. . Hannes -
contributed significant amount of text . Ahmed - many in depth reviews w input
based on early prototypes of the functionality . Clarence - as architect for SR
he insured that text for this document - which was the first document defining
protocol extensions for SR - remained consistent w the SR architecture
Also:
. Stephane - many in depth reviews
. Jeff - many in depth reviews
(12) Describe how the document meets any required formal review criteria, such
as the MIB Doctor, media type, and URI type reviews.
Parameters defined in this document should be configured from respective IGP SR
yang model. Base SR yang model (draft-ietf-spring-sr-yang) is also relevant to
this document and it is quite stable. No need for such formal review.
(13) Have all references within this document been identified as either
normative or informative?
Yes
(14) Are there normative references to documents that are not ready for
advancement or are otherwise in an unclear state? If such normative references
exist, what is the plan for their completion?
No.
(15) Are there downward normative references (see RFC 3967)? If so, list these
downward references to support the Area Director in the Last Call procedure.
No.
(16) Will publication of this document change the status of any existing RFCs?
Are those RFCs listed on the title page header, listed in the abstract, and
discussed in the introduction? If the RFCs are not listed in the Abstract and
Introduction, explain why, and point to the part of the document where the
relationship of this document to the other RFCs is discussed. If this
information is not in the document, explain why the WG considers it unnecessary.
The state of other documents remains unchanged.
(17) Describe the Document Shepherd's review of the IANA considerations
section, especially with regard to its consistency with the body of the
document. Confirm that all protocol extensions that the document makes are
associated with
the appropriate reservations in IANA registries.
Confirm that any referenced IANA registries have been clearly identified.
Confirm that newly created IANA registries include a detailed specification of
the initial contents for the registry, that allocations procedures for future
registrations are defined, and a reasonable name for the new registry has been
suggested (see RFC 5226).
IS-IS Segment Routing extensions required allocation of a number of
code points from the IS-IS TLV code point registry. These code
points were pre-allocated through IANA early allocation as
described in RFC 7120.
(18) List any new IANA registries that require Expert Review for future
allocations. Provide any public guidance that the IESG would find useful in
selecting the IANA Experts for these new registries. None.
(19) Describe reviews and automated checks performed by the Document Shepherd
to validate sections of the document written in a formal language, such as XML
code, BNF rules, MIB definitions, etc. N/A
