This document is ready as a Proposed Standard.

Major: 0
Minor: 2
Nits: 1

Minor:
- S4.1, second paragraph: I suspect that the expectation is that
 the SCTP stack uses a single local UDP port number for
 *all local interfaces*, right?  As written currently, the qualifier
 for "all local interfaces" is missing --- maybe it is assumed?  If so,
 better to state explicitly.

- S5, second paragraph ("Please note that this section is informational
 only.") --- I am not sure the value of this sentence.  The draft itself
 is targeted as a standards track document, so it comes as a surprise
 that a certain section is to be exempted from normative language.  How-
 ever, since there isn't any normative language (as per rfc2119) in the
 remainder of S5, why bother with informing the reader that this section
 is informational?  My suggestion would be to simply remove the
 offending sentence to decrease any ambiguity.

Nits:

- S3.1, third paragraph: I would suggest "s/user-land/user space".
 It is better to be academic than colloquial here.

Thanks,

- vijay
