Folks,

	This note starts the WG Last Call for comments on
	draft-ietf-grow-collection-communities-08.txt,
	"BGP Communities for Data Collection". It can be found on
	
	ftp://ftp.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-grow-collection-communities-08.txt

	The document's proposed status is BCP.

	As you may know, a prior version of this document was
	approved by the IESG. However, a change was made to the
	IANA Considerations section (Section 8) in order to
	create 2 registries, one for standard communities, and
	one for extended communities, for the values of <Value>
	and <R> in Figure 2, section 4. In particular:

	   In addition, this memo instructs the IANA to create
	   two registries for BGP Data Collection Communities,
	   one for standard communities and one for extended
	   communities.  Both of these registries should
	   initially be populated by the values described in
	   Section 4.  IETF Consensus, usually through the Global
	   Routing Operations Working Group (grow) is required
	   for the assignment of new values in these registries
	   (in particular, for <Value> or <R>), as described in
	   Figure 2 [RFC2434]. 

	The idea is to allow new values to be registered without
	modifications to this document.

	Please review and send comments to the list.

	This Last Call will end on 06 Sep 2005 at 1400 PDT
	(UTC/GMT-7). 

	Thanks,

	Dave & Geoff
