# GEN AD review of draft-ietf-alto-cost-mode-03

CC @larseggert

Thanks to Roni Even for the General Area Review Team (Gen-ART) review
(https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/gen-art/xlaIzXHKY1NzjJRJpuXpzKwP4rc).

## Comments

### Section 1, paragraph 4
```
     Additional cost modes are required for specific ALTO deployment cases
     (e.g., [I-D.ietf-alto-path-vector]).  In order to allow for such use
     cases, this document relaxes the constraint imposed by the base ALTO
     specification on allowed cost modes (Section 3) and creates a new
     ALTO registry to track new cost modes (Section 4).
```
I second Rob's DISCUSS, i.e., it's not clear at all that current ALTO
implementations will handle this protocol parameter now taking on
values other than "numerical" or "ordinal" without explicit
negotiation.

I will let Rob hold the DISCUSS, but will monitor the discussion to
see if this issue will be addressed.
