** Section 5.2

5.2.  Information and Data Models
   An implementation SHOULD allow an operator to view the PCEP peer
   capability defined in this document.  Section 4.1 and 4.1.1 of
   [RFC9826] should be extended to include that capability for PCEP
   peer.
   Section 4.2 of [RFC9826] module SHOULD be extended to add
   notification for blocked path modification that satisfies specified
   constraints if path modification is blocked using the PATH-
   MODIFICATION TLV.

-- Per “Section 4.1 and 4.1.1 of [RFC9826] should be extended to include that
capability for PCEP peer”, who is this guidance for?  What does it mean to say
that a given section of an RFC “should be extended”?  Is this extended the
model in RFC9826?

<S> The guidance was mostly for other PCE IETF drafts, which will 
extend/augment Yang model introduced as part of RFC9826 (possibly 
draft-ietf-pce-pcep-srv6-yang, but it can be other draft as well in the 
future). My understanding is that we are following similar approach in other 
PCEP RFCs.

Would following updated text work for you?

   An implementation SHOULD allow an operator to view the PCEP peer
   capability defined in this document.  A YANG data model specification
   augmenting the model defined in Sections 4.1 and 4.1.1 of [RFC9826]
   SHOULD include that capability for the PCEP peer.


-- Per “Section 4.2 of [RFC9826] module SHOULD be extended to add notification
for blocked path modification that satisfies specified constraints if path
modification is blocked using the PATH-MODIFICATION TLV”, same questions.
Additionally, this text says the "module SHOULD be extended", upper case
"SHOULD", does that mean anything different than the lower case in the previous
sentence?

<S> Similar to above. Updated text (also with solved inconsistency for 
“SHOULD”):

   A YANG data model specification augmenting the module defined in
   Section 4.2 of [RFC9826] SHOULD add a notification for blocked path
   modification that satisfies specified constraints if path
   modification is blocked using the PATH-MODIFICATION TLV.

COMMENT:

** Section 5.4
   A PCE implementation SHOULD notify the operator in case of blocked
   path modification for an LSP that no longer satisfies specified
   constraints.  It SHOULD also allow the operator to view LSPs on the
   PCE that does not satisfy specified constraints.

Is there some interoperable way that the operator should be notified?

Is there some interoperable way about how an operator should “view LSPs”?

<S> That text was mostly pointing to notification described in section 5.2 (so 
Yang model augmentation, which is supposed to be interoperable). Is following 
text better?

   A PCE implementation SHOULD allow the operator to monitor LSPs for
   which the PCE has determined that the current path no longer
   satisfies the specified constraints but path modification is blocked
   by the PATH-MODIFICATION TLV, for example via YANG notifications or
   the YANG data model described in Section 5.2.
