Hi Ali, Kesavan, Samir, Ashutosh, and Luay,

Thanks for the effort put into this document. I'm impressed by your patience to
carry this effort for +6 years.

I do think that the overall document is in good track an its core contribution
is almost stable. No serious warnings but a set of items that I think are worth
clarifying (see the detailed review, fwiw).

It would be helpful to include manageability aspects in one single section.

I'm not convinced that Sections 8/9 fit in the core document. Likewise, the set
of requirements are not linked to the rest of the document. I would expecting
some "assessment" of how these are met in the design.

Feel free to grab whatever you think useful in the review.

Cheers,
Med
