Hello

I have been selected to do a routing directorate “early” review of this draft.
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-foo-name/

The routing directorate will, on request from the working group chair, perform
an “early” review of a draft before it is submitted for publication to the
IESG. The early review can be performed at any time during the draft’s lifetime
as a working group document. The purpose of the early review depends on the
stage that the document has reached.

<case 1> As this document has recently been adopted by the working group, my
focus for the review is on providing a new perspective on the work, with the
intention of catching any issues early on in the document's life cycle.

<case 2> As this document is in working group last call, my focus for the
review was to determine whether the document is ready to be published. Please
consider my comments along with the other working group last call comments.

<case 3> If neither of the above describes the circumstances of the review,
then write a brief summary of the reasons for and purpose of the review here
(get this from the WG chair if you are not sure).

Document: draft-ietf-babel-rtt-extension-03.txt
Reviewer: Joel Halpern
Review Date: 18-July-2023
Intended Status: Proposed Standard

Summary:
    This document is basically ready for publication, but has nits that should
    be considered prior to being submitted to the IESG.

Major Issues: N/A

Minor Issues: N/A

Nits:
    In section 3.2 when describing the procedure, the paragraph about sending
    the Hello which contains the IHU says it it must contain the sender's
    timestamp.  It does not name that timestamp R2'.  The next paragraph refers
    to the timestamp as R2' (for good reason.)  Please put the naming in the
    earlier paragraph.
