Creating a new application
Criteria: “New application is unable to fit within an existing application without requiring major changes to the specification”
Example major changes:
Adding new “mandatory-to-support” AVPs
A command requires different round trips than what is currently in the specification
Support for a new authentication method with new AVPs
As a last resort
Advocates reuse of existing applications and AVPs
