     2) MINOR:
Section 1 also says: Although MSD

I found nothing else in the document that elaborated on this. Further
     explanation is needed, in a section other than the introduction.
[jeff] the meaning of the statement is that MSD MAY be advertised even if 
Segment Routing is not enabled, ie MSD(s) advertisement could be used by any 
other application that would find the data provided of value. I would 
appreciate, if you could be more specific about what's missing.

Perhaps this is obvious to the likely readers, but not to me...

(As someone with absolutely no knowledge of OSPF I found the specifics of the document to be nearly impenetrable. But I'm not part of the target audience.)

I thought this information was specific to segment routing (whatever that is), so what is the point of having this information if segment routing isn't enabled? How would it be used? For me some discussion of that would be helpful.

In any case, AFAIK an "introduction" serves to introduce the material that is covered in more depth later in the document. In this case it isn't introducing anything that comes later. If it is to only appear in one place, then I would expect it to be later in the document.

        Thanks,
        Paul
