Summary:  Ready
--------

Comments:
---------

This draft is well-written and clear.

It retro-fits extensibility to two existing specifications.
As an author of RFC 6709 I find this an interesting exercise. Do
the hints in 

http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6709#section-4

 help,
especially bullet 2?

Minor Issues:
------------

It is highly unusual for a draft to formally update another draft
(draft-ietf-manet-olsrv2), even though the latter is approved and
in the RFC queue. If we were a rational organisation, that draft
would be updated before publication.

(The writeup actually says "The Optimized Link State Routing Protocol
version 2 (OLSRv2) has been published as Standards Track." but that is
inaccurate.)
