Hi Job/WG,

Reading the document I have a feeling/suggestion that perhaps this is a
very good time now to define few IXP focused well known Large Communities
such that most often signalled policies between RS and their clients are
well defined and not random among IXPs.

That may also in fact encourage faster migration to LCs from Extended
Commuities.

Thx a lot,
Robert
