Hi, Chris:

The first adoption call focus on the A.1 use case(figure 1), not cover all of 
the use case that listed in A.1-A.3
For A.1(Figure 1) use case, previous discussions focus on mainly the benefits 
of the  configuration simplification, which you emphasize that IGP does not 
mainly for such work.

OK, now let us consider other issues of the existing solutions——how to get the 
related information automatically and error-proofing? RFC9346 and RFC 5392 
mentioned all such challenges, they even propose to use BGP to cross verify 
such information, which is still on the imagination stage.

Then, if there is solution can bypass such requirements, should we consider it 
then? Especially from the deployment viewpoint of the operator?

Together with the above points, the proposed solution can cover other use 
cases, which are not discussed throughly in previous adoption call.

If one proposal can simply the deployment requirements of existing solution for 
some cases(A.1 Figure 1 and A.3), can solve some case that existing solution 
can’t(A.1 Figure 2 and A.2) should we accept it then?

We can discuss throughly on the above statements then for the second adoption 
call, pass the configuration simplification arguments.
