I have reviewed this document as part of the security directorate's ongoing
effort to review all IETF documents being processed by the IESG. These comments
were written primarily for the benefit of the security area directors. Document
editors and WG chairs should treat these comments just like any other last call
comments.

This document is establishing a container for publicly available enumeration
values to be included in an IODEF [IODEF] document. Several questions about the
proposed solution are listed as follows. 1)      In this specification, a given
enumeration is uniquely identified by the specIndex attribute. However the
usage of ID is not clearly introduced. In the security consideration section,
it is mentioned that the miss-match between the index and the ID may cause
problem. Could you please give me some clues? 2)      Where is section 2.2? 3) 
    In the abstract, it is stated that "This memo establishes a stand-alone
data format to include both the external specification and specific enumeration
value,. However, I didn't find the specific enumeration value in the example
provided in Section 2.1: "      <iodef:Reference>
         <iodef-enum:ReferenceName specIndex="1">
            <iodef-enum:ID>CXI-1234-XYZ</iodef-enum:ID>
         </iodef-enum:ReferenceName>
         <iodef:URL>

</iodef:URL>
         <iodef:Description>Foo</iodef:Description>
