Hi Sasha,

Thanks for the review and comment on this document.

Although this draft does not introduce new SR segment type/SRv6 behavior, there 
is change in the semantics and forwarding behavior of the resource-aware 
segments, as each resource-aware SIDs identifies a subset of the network 
resources used for packet processing.

Thus the authors consider this document belong to standard track. That said, 
the usage of IETF keywords in current version needs to be revisited and 
adjusted if needed.

Of course we would like to hear the opinions from the WG participants, and 
follow the decision of the WG.

Best regards,
Jie

Subject: [spring] Intended status of draft-ietf-spring-resource-aware-segments

Hello,
I have read the 
draft<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-spring-resource-aware-segments-08>,
  and I do not have any technical comments on it.
At the same time, I wonder why its intended status appears as “Standard Track”:

  1.  The draft does not define any new mechanisms in the data plane or control 
plane
  2.  Usage of the IETF keywords denoting requirement levels looks too 
vague/generic to me, e.g.

     *   The details of the underlay network MUST NOT be exposed to third 
parties, to prevent attacks aimed at exploiting shared network resources
     *   If there are related link advertisements, then consistency MUST be 
assured across that set of advertisements

IMHO and FWIW the draft describes how resource-aware forwarding can be achieved 
using various already-defined SR mechanisms.

Have the authors and/or the WG considered changing the intended status of the 
draft to “Informational”?

Regards,
Sasha
