Nits/editorial comments:
-please spell out acronyms at first use.

-[Page 7,8]
"If an implementation receives an
   unknown TLV type for the first TLV in a message, it SHOULD ignore and
   silently discard the TLV and any subsequent TLVs in the packet
   containing the TLV.  If an implementation receives an unknown TLV
   type for a subsequent TLV within a message, it SHOULD ignore and
   silently discard the TLV.  If the length of a TLV exceeds the
   available space in the containing packet, the implementation MUST
   ignore and silently discard the TLV and any remaining portion of the
containing packet.  Any data in the packet after the specified TLV
   length is considered to be outside the boundary of the TLV and MUST
   be ignored during processing of the TLV.
"

this whole paragraph is a bit confusing.

e.g. "If an implementation receives an unknown TLV type for the first TLV in a
message", is this refering to the header TLV? e.g. "If an implementation
receives an unknown TLV   type for a subsequent TLV within a message, it SHOULD
ignore and
   silently discard the TLV.", does this mean TLVs after this one TLV should
   not be discarded?
e.g. "Any data in the packet after the specified TLV length is considered to be
outside the boundary of the TLV and MUST
   be ignored during processing of the TLV.", does this apply to last case only
   of when the length of a TLV exceeds the available space in the packet?

-[Page 12, 13], "UNIX timeval" or  timespec?
(please verify if usec or nsec)

-[Page 17], "An unique"--->"A unique"
