The IANA consideration section of this document requests that the
"multiple routes to a destination" capability code be marked as
deprecated, with a reference to this document. Isn't that sufficient?
Hi Eric,
Sorry I missed that.
I am not sure if the same protocol applies to IANA codepoints as RFCs,
but if you were obsoleting an RFC it would need to be noted in the
abstract and the introduction.
If you do a respin it might be better to note the deprecation near the
text on obsolescence, since people tend to read the main text and not
the IANA section. However at the end of the day it is up to the AD how
they want to handle this.
