CC @evyncke

Thank you for the work put into this document.

Please find below some non-blocking COMMENT points (but replies would be
appreciated even if only for my own education), and one nit.

Special thanks to Zhaohui (Jeffrey) Zhang for the shepherd's write-up including
the WG consensus and the justification of the intended status.

I hope that this review helps to improve the document,

Regards,

## COMMENTS (non-blocking)

### Abstract

Suggest removing the first sentence.

Possibly add a reference to RFC 8986 network programming as this is specific to
net-pgm and not plain SRv6.

### Section 1

s/SRv6 refers to Segment Routing instantiated on the IPv6 data plane/SRv6
refers to Segment Routing instantiated *over* the IPv6 data plane/ ?

*VERY* ambiguous statement `SRv6 Service Segment Identifier (SID) refers to an
SRv6 SID` (recursive and conflicting redefinition of SID)

### Section 2

`As specified in [RFC8986], an SRv6 SID comprises three components:` is not
correct as RFC 8402 that defines SID has not this structure. So, let's be
specific and states that "RFC 8946 SID comprises three components" or something
similar.

### Section 3.1

s/Ethernet Auto-Discovery (A-D) ... are utilized/s/Ethernet Auto-Discovery
(A-D) ... *is* utilized/ ?

`::0` is not a canonical format for "::".

s/0:0:0:0:aaaa::/::aaaa:0:0:0/ (also in section 3.3)

### Section 3.3

`BUM` is already define before.

### Being more generic ?

Sections 3.1 and 3.2 seems very specific, but should the described mechanism be
more generic ? The bit-wise OR seems indeed too simplistic and this mechanism
could be used for other end point behavior beyond those described in section
3.1 and 3.2

## NITS (non-blocking / cosmetic)

### Use of SVG graphics

To make a much nicer HTML rendering, suggest using the aasvg too to generate
SVG graphics. It is worth a try especially if the I-D uses the Kramdown file
format ;-)
