Yes -- I can see how "enhancements" in the second sentence above can be interpreted as extensions to new existing mechanisms. NEW> The "Source Address Validation in Intra-domain and Inter-domain Networks (SAVNET)" working group will define routing protocol-independent architectures and procedures to accurately determine the valid incoming router interfaces for specific source prefixes. The accuracy of the new SAV mechanisms is expected to improve upon the current ones. The WG will not work on extending existing mechanisms. Is that any better? Thanks! Alvaro.
