Summary:

This document is ready, with one issue that I think could benefit
from some clarification.

Major issues:

NONE

Minor issue:

This is more a question, that might warrant some clarification:
In 7. Verification, the last paragraph discusses client-side
caching of the RRsets. If a client has cached the full RRset chain
from TLSA to root RRSIG (and that cache is still viable), is the
client still expected to specify the "dnssec_chain" extension?

In my reading, that does not seem necessary, and I think it might
be worth noting if that is true.

Nits/editorial comments: 

NONE
