I've reviewed this document as part of the transport area directorate's ongoing
effort to review key IETF documents. These comments were written primarily for
the transport area directors, but are copied to the document's authors for
their information and to allow them to address any issues raised. The authors
should consider this review together with any other last-call comments they
receive. Please always CC tsv-dir at ietf.org if you reply to or forward this
review.

This draft is ready for publication as a BCP RFC.

A few small comments which I don't think should be blocking are:

1 - on page 11, in section 6, "near-infinite" is a bit of an exaggeration

2 - on page 16, there's a typo: "MUST accompanied" should be "MUST be
accompanied"

3 - on page 17, it may be a good idea to be clear whether the Assignee can be
an individual (not just an organization)

4 - on page 17, Contact is defined as a person, but using the IESG as the
Contact makes it a group (not a "person"); it might be good to clarify Contact
as a person or group of people

5 - on page 17, in the Reference definition, it may be good to qualify the
description of broadcast/multicast/anycast use by the protocol as being
IP-layer broadcast/multicast/anycast to disambiguate from possible
application-layer mechanisms for these that might be used
