> Technical Summary
>
>   This document specifies Protocol Independent Multicast -
>   Sparse Mode (PIM-SM).  PIM-SM is a multicast routing protocol
>   that can use the underlying unicast routing information base
>   or a separate multicast-capable routing information base.  It
>   builds unidirectional shared trees rooted at a Rendezvous
>   Point (RP) per group, and optionally creates shortest-path
>   trees per source.
>
> Working Group Summary
>
>  The WG had concensus on progressing this specification.
>
> Protocol Quality
>
>  Alex Zinin reviewed this specification for the IESG. There exist  
> multiple
>  interoperable implementations of the specification.
