RE: Route Server Filters at IXPs and 4-byte ASNs

I would support that.

How would you modify it?

To me, that draft looks hugely complicated, like everything you
could possibly think of was thrown in. I would support a simplified
version (and be able to code it without bugs) if it contained just useful stuff.

The token to simplify is currently mine. The messy bit was an attempt to try to push policy algebra into the packet format. A hallway conversation with a certain German gentleman helped disabuse me about the wisdom of doing that.

Cleaning up the document will take probably another two rounds but a terse description of where it should be going is "template based structured communities".
