Hi Sasha, That is very helpful feedback, and adding a section about the changes makes sense to me. Thanks. Jorge

I have started reading the draft in hope to find a section that describes the differences between the original RFC 7432 and the “bis” draft for this RFC. AFAIK, such sections are quite customary when a “bis” revision of an already approved and published RFC is proposed. Unfortunately, there seems to be no such section in the draft, and looking for the differences in a 64-page document is quite non-trivial. This may be one of the reasons why no comments have appeared at the BESS WG mailing list in 5 months following the draft posting. May I suggest that you add such a section (or Appendix) to the next revision of the draft? Looking just at the tables of contents of RFC 7432 and of the draft I see that the following new sections have been added (could have missed some items) 7.9<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-bess-rfc7432bis-00#section-7.9>. EVPN Layer 2 Attributes Extended Community 7.9.1<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-bess-rfc7432bis-00#section-7.9.1>. EVPN Layer 2 Attributes Partitioning 7.12<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-bess-rfc7432bis-00#section-7.12>. Route Prioritization 10.1.1<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-bess-rfc7432bis-00#section-10.1.1>. Best Path selection for Default Gateway 15.2<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-bess-rfc7432bis-00#section-15.2>. Sticky MAC Addresses 18.1<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-bess-rfc7432bis-00#section-18.1>. Flow Label 19<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-bess-rfc7432bis-00#section-19>. Use of Domain-wide Common Block (DCB) Labels There are also some changes in the text of the sections that have existed in RFC 743. E.g., I see reference to BIER in the draft that do not exist in RFC 7432. Tracking such changes would be quite difficult without the authors’ help in the form of a “Summary of changes from RFC 7432” section/Appendix. Such a section, if added, would be also included in the resulting RFC. Hopefully this comment will be useful.
