Hi! [I am not the AD, but the chairs asked me to look at the changes -- so I'm replying to this thread.]
My main concern with this document continues to be the terminology (see quoted text below). I am not satisfied with the changes -- the terminology is still not consistent with rfc4271 or other BGP-related IETF documents, regardless of what specific implementations may use. Adding "pic-" to the terms results, in my opinion, in more conflicts than before. The authors' opinion is not aligned with mine, which results in disconnects about the description of the processes and the content in general. To quote Ahmed: #Ahmed: that is probably the main reason of lots of disconnects. The document defines terms and uses these terms according to the definition in the document, not in other documents (even if these other documents are RFCs). I already prefixed the confusing terms in the document with something like "PIC-" As a WG participant, I don't think this document is ready to move forward, but it is not up to me to decide which approach should be followed. I'll leave that up to the Chairs and the rest of the WG. Just one substantive comment: the references were not updated to the required format. The RFC Editor requires that the OID be listed for all references [1]. Please update the references -- here's an example of what they should look like [2]: [RFC4271] Rekhter, Y., Ed., Li, T., Ed., and S. Hares, Ed., "A Border Gateway Protocol 4 (BGP-4)", RFC 4271, DOI 10.17487/RFC4271, January 2006, <https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc4271>.
