Subject: [Bier] FW: New Version Notification for draft-xie-bier-ipv6-encapsulation-01.txt

Hi All,

This -01 draft has the following changes:
1) Next Header value 139 changed to 137 to represent Downstream-assigned MPLS in IPv6.
2) Unicast address option changed from a "general" IPv6 address to a "BIER specific" IPv6 address. This will solve the concerns regarding the efficiency of BIERv6 forwarding, and the impact to exist process.
3) Regarding the order of many possible IPv6 ext headers and options, there is a reference to RFC6275, and the above "BIER Specific" IPv6 address also has a solid support with minimum impact.
4) Add a reference to SRv6-Network-Programming, and also make clear BIERv6 does not depend on SRv6-NP.

Very much appreciated for your comments !

Thanks
Jingrong
