Summary: This draft is basically ready for publication as a Standards Track
RFC, but has some nits that should be fixed before publication. [Ready with
nits.]

This draft documents a novel means of using XMPP to signal VPN route
information between VPN Forwarders and End-System Route Servers for use with
BGP IP VPNs.  It discussed the requirements on each entity using the scheme.

Major issues:

Minor issues:

Nits:

General: Use a comma after i.e. and e.g.

General: Data center doesn't require a hyphen.  Neither does virtual machine. 
Wi-Fi does, however.

Page 3, definition of End-System, 1st sentence: change "which" to "whose".

Page 4, 4th paragraph, last sentence: replace "recur to" with "rely upon".

Page 6, 3rd paragraph, 1st sentence: delete "then".

Page 10, 1st paragraph, 1st sentence: delete redundant "the".

Page 10, 1st paragraph, 2nd sentence: change "mac-" to "MAC ".  Change "a IEEE"
to "an IEEE".

Page 11, figure: this figure needs a caption with a figure number.  That will
force an increment of all of the following figure numbers as well.

Page 16, 1st paragraph after XML, last sentence: change "convinience" to
"convenience".

Page 16, 2nd paragraph, 3rd sentence: replace the period with a comma and
change the following "Even" to lower case to join the following clause to the
sentence.

Page 17, 4th paragraph, 2nd sentence: replace "detemined" with "determined". 
Replace "an" with "a".

Page 17, 5th paragraph, 2nd sentence: replace "mapps" with "maps".

Page 18, Section 8, 4th paragraph, 1st sentence: change "a XMPP" to "an XMPP".

Page 19, 1st paragraph, 2nd sentence: change "attachement" to "attachment".

Page 20, 1st full paragraph, 1st sentence: I'm not certain, but would inserting
"the" before "host" help?  Or how about a host number after "host"?

Page 20, 7th paragraph, 2nd sentence: change "Assuming" to "Assume".
