Hi, Chris:

There are significant changes from the last adoption call(version 02) to the 
current version(version 08). Then I doubt the valid information from the 
previous discussions.

For example, there is no concrete use cases description in the previous 
version, which is provided in the appendix A.1-A.3 of current version.

There are also the updates for the protocol extension, which absorbs the 
experts’ various comments from the last update.

Until know, it seems people focus mainly on the use cases, we have explained 
them to them at 
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/lsr/er9iQ6sgEmvqJSCz_vtZjQ6FB-g/. If 
there is more question on the responses, please continue the discussion.

Regarding to the use case A.1 (Figure 1)which what you mentioned as one failed 
use case of the first adoption call, what we want to emphasize is that it is 
not only the configuration challenges in the complex network, but also how to 
get the correct/error-proof  information automatically from the other sides. 
Such challenges are also mentioned in the existing RFC 
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9346.html#section-4.1, 
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9346.html#section-5
and also the corresponding parts of RFC5392.

Then, If there is solution that can bypass these challenges, why don’t we adopt 
it?

For use case A.1(Figure 2), as Huaimo points out, the existing RFC cannot solve 
the requirements.

For use case A.2, the inter-AS based solution cannot solve the non inter-AS 
scenario. 

For use case A.3, it has the same benefits as that for use case A.1(Figure 1) 
when compared with the existing solution. The differences are that A.1(Figure) 
focuses on the topology recovery, A.3 focuses on forward path optimization.

When we consider whether one proposal is reasonable enough, we should not only 
consider the implementation possibilities, but also the deployment 
challenges(not configuration/management). If it is not practical for the 
deployment, then what’s the value of standard/implementation?

And, people are arguing that there exists inter-AS TE 
solutions(RFC9346/RFC5392), but how many operators have deployed them in the 
network? Are anyone considering the reason that hinders their deployments?
