There are a lot of Abbreviations unecpanded, starting with EVPN in the abstract, 
that are  not well-know  abbreviations according to the RFC Editors list at 
https://www.rfc-editor.org/materials/abbrev.expansion.txt

The suggestion is that the authors go over the document, look at every abbreviation
and make sure that they are properly expanded.

AS foir something that is wellknow in the multicast community, (S,G), (*,G), "S", "G"
etc. it would be good with a reference for us outsiders.

Otther than that, and that I sometimes find the language a bit "flowery", that makes
the draft slow to read (and yes I admit that I am not a subject matter expert).

Other than that I think the draft from a technical point of view is wellwritten, 
and can be progressed as soon as the nits are fixed.
