Hi Job,

Indeed !

I do not understand why there is any need for "design team" if required
functionality is about one of the core protocol functionality. What are we
trying to achieve - if someone on IDR is not interested given mail thread
can be easily moved to trash.

Hi Jim,

Many thx for your opinion. Very much appreciated here.

Also as we see from some proposals the core DC auto peering (also called by
some as "autodiscovery") can be done with the assistance of existing L2
protocols. So I think the fundamental first question is if this work even
belongs to IDR.

Thx,
R.
