Hello

I have been selected to do a routing directorate “early” review of this draft.

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-pce-pcep-extension-pce-controller-sr.txt/

The routing directorate will, on request from the working group chair, perform
an “early” review of a draft before it is submitted for publication to the
IESG. The early review can be performed at any time during the draft’s lifetime
as a working group document. The purpose of the early review depends on the
stage that the document has reached.

As this document has recently been adopted by the working group, my focus for
the review is on providing a new perspective on the work, with the intention of
catching any issues early on in the document's life cycle.

For more information about the Routing Directorate, please see
https://wiki.ietf.org/en/group/rtg/RtgDir

Document: draft-ietf-pce-pcep-extension-pce-controller-sr
Reviewer: Andy Smith
Review Date: 20 Jan 2026
Intended Status: Experimental

Summary:

No major issues found. This documents is ready to proceed to the IESG.

Comments:

There are a lot of run on sentences and the text can be laborious to read ...
but this would be a stylistic critique and not substantive to the goals of the
document.   As an IETF draft it is acceptable.
