RE: [Idr] Genart LC review: draft-ietf-idr-large-community-11

Jakob Heitz responded to the suggestion to extend the reserved Global
Administrator values, but for some reason I can't find that email in the
IETF IDR archive, I've copy+pasted it here:

    Subject: Re: [Idr] New Version Notification for 
draft-ietf-idr-large-community-11.txt

     No new text is required to cover this: 23456 is not an ASN.
     Besides, if anyone were to put it into a large community, no harm
     would be done other than what would happen if any other unassigned
     ASN were used.

     About reserving values, we don't reserve values because the values
     are unusable, but because we may want to use them for other purposes
     later. There is no need to reserve another value. 3 is more than
     enough.

    Thanks,
    Jakob.

  WFM, but please get your chairs to chase down why the message didn't
make it to the archive.

It shows up in the other archive:
https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/idr/current/msg17255.html


Thanks,
Jakob.
