Brian -

Thanx for the review - I will work with Danny to get the editorial
issues corrected. Some replies to your non-editorial questions/issues:

Do you want the IESG to also reclassify RFC3786 as Historic?
If so, I suggest saying this explicitly in the Introduction.

LES: I would think obsolete is more appropriate.

The draft uses the phrase "Virtual IS" without defining it. I see
that RFC3786 defines and uses "Virtual System". 

LES: Agreed - we need a definition.

Is it "IS-Alias" or "IS Alias ID"? I don't see a reason for having
two names for the same TLV.

LES: Agreed - we'll make this consistent.

What happens when a legacy implementation receives an IS Alias ID,
IS Neighbor Attribute, or MT IS Neighbor Attribute TLV?
Is silent discard specified in the IS-IS standard?

LES: Yes. See ISO 10589 Section 9.5:

"Any codes in a received PDU that are not recognised shall be ignored."

Similar text is found in the sections for each PDU type. For example in
Section 9.8:

"Any codes in a received LSP that are not recognised are ignored and
passed through unchanged."
