Alia,
I think that this merger is long overdue, and hopefully it will help new
features to be written in an aligned way.
I think the remit to perform general maintenance should slightly
clarified since the way the charter is written they look like they are
at a lower priority than the enumerated list.
I would have thought that "LSR can coordinate with CCAMP and BIER on
their extensions " should have been more directive.

Here is the proposed charter for the LSR working group
that will be created from the SPF and ISIS working groups.
This is scheduled for internal review for the IESG telechat on February 8.
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/charter-ietf-lsr/
The Link-State Routing (LSR) Working Group is chartered to document
current protocol implementation practices and improvements, protocol
usage scenarios, maintenance and extensions of link-state routing
interior gateway protocols (IGPs) with a focus on IS-IS, OSPFv2, and
OSPFv3. The LSR Working Group is formed by merging the isis and ospf
WGs and will take on all their existing adopted work at the time of
chartering.
IS-IS is an IGP specified and standardized by ISO through ISO
10589:2002 and additional RFC standards with extensions to support IP
that has been deployed in the Internet for decades. For the IS-IS
protocol, LSR’s work is focused on IP routing, currently based on the
agreement in RFC 3563 with ISO/JTC1/SC6. The LSR WG will interact with
other standards bodies that have responsible for standardizing IS-IS.
OSPFv2 [RFC 2328 and extensions], is an IGP that has been deployed in
the Internet for decades. OSPFv3 [RFC5340 and extensions] provides
OSPF for IPv6 and IPv4 [RFC5838] which can be delivered over IPv6 or
IPv4 [RFC 7949].
The LSR Working Group will generally manage its specific work items by
milestones agreed with the responsible Area Director.
The following topics are expected to be an initial focus:
1) Improving OSPF support for IPv6 and extensions using OSPFv3 LSA
Extendibility.
2) Extensions needed for Segment Routing and associated architectural
changes
3) YANG models for IS-IS, OSPFv2, and OSPFv3 and extensions
4) Extensions for source-destination routing
[draft-ietf-rtgwg-dst-src-routing]
5) Potentially, extensions to better support specific network
topologies such as
ones commonly used in data centers.
The Link-State Routing (LSR) Working Group will coordinate with other
working groups, such as RTGWG, SPRING, MPLS, TEAS, V6OPS, and 6MAN, to
understand the need for extensions and to confirm that the planned
work meets the needs. LSR can coordinate with CCAMP and BIER on their
extensions to the LSR IGPs as useful. LSR may coordinate with other
WGs as needed.
Regards,
Alia
