Ballot Text

Technical Summary

      This document specifies extensions to ISIS to specify encoding for
      application specific link attributes. This will support both
      different attributes for applications and limiting the usage of
      attributes to specific applications. Backward compatibility
      considerations are also discussed. 

Working Group Summary

      specific attributes. However, after considerable debate, consensus
      was reached on the the document.

    clarifications.
