[c-nsp] ASR9K IOS-XR 4.3.2 or 5.1.0

[Adam Vitkovsky]

Hi,
If you have to pick now than I believe the 4.3.2 would be a better choice
compared to the brand new branch of 5.1.0. 
Personally I'm waiting for at least 4.3.3 or even 4.3.4 as a long term code
as it has all the major features we need and hopefully majority of the nasty
bugs are going to be fixed by then. 
Since the upgrade process in a production network is such a PITA hopefully
we'll be able to thrive on 4.3.4 + SMUs till we decide to switch from MPLS
to SR :) 

Just read through the release notes caveats to see whether something strikes
your eye and check out the SMUs available.

Hi, we're currently running 4.2.3 and need to upgrade to get support for
A9K-MPA-8X10GE.

Both releases are quite fresh, does anyone have any input on pros and cons
on witch release to try out..?
    I've read that downgrade from 4.3.0 to 4.2.x could be a problem...

We're running L2 and L3 vpn to ME3600X devices and about 400 IPTV
streams/channels in 4 vrf's (pim/gmp peering).

Tnx!
