I don't quite understand how the tracker brought this document to the
telechat without having Magnus vote "Yes". Presumably Magnus is happy
with the document, no?

I'd really like to talk a little bit about the MSL - the implementation I see code for a MSL much shorter than the 2 minutes recommended here. The result is that it's very hard to predict how long anything will wait. We would be much better off to revise the MSL to some realistic number - then people might implement that and one would count on it. All you can count on today is that if you have a MSL of 2 minutes, lots of equipment will time out long before that.

Section 3.4:
   "This results in a relatively weak
   protection from in terms of coding theory"

I think some noun is missing after the word "from"

Same section:

   "This check is not strong from a coding or cryptographic
   perspective, and is not designed to detect physical-layer errors or
   malicious modification of the datagram"

Is it that it can't detect or can't distinguish between?

There's some repetition of text in Sections 3.1.2 and 3.5, but
presumably RFC editor copyediting will take care of that.
