Notes from the dns-directorate review: o In the introduction, AFTR should be expanded once, before first use o I'm not too familiar with RADIUS folklore, so this might be obvious to others, but section 4 does not clearly state which format is used for DS-Lite-Tunnel-Name. Section 5 later states that "The data type of DS-Lite-Tunnel-Name is a string", but earlier it is suggested that DS-Lite-Tunnel-Name be fed with the data obtained through DHCP in OPTION_AFTR_NAME, which is clearly in DNS wire format. If this option uses text (presentation) format instead, it would need to say whether it's all ASCII (A-Label) or not (where it is unlikely anybody intended to use U-Labels). The picture at the top of page 9 suggests the DS-Lite-Tunnel-Name has a fixed length (of 6 octets, for that matter), so a more open ended graph as used in the RADIUS RFCs might be advised.

There are a number of acronyms in the Abstract. It would help the reader if you expanded them on first occurrence.

4) in 4.1, "The Change-of-Authorization (CoA) message [RFC5176] can be used to modify the current established DS-Lite tunnel." Should this be MUST be used, to ensure interoperability? or maybe RECOMMENDED, with mention of possible alternative approaches?

draft-ietf-softwire-dslite-radius-ext-04 The PROTO writeup says this draft "passes nits". However, running the ID nits tool on the draft yields an error related to a dowref. Adrian has already a discuss on it because the downref did not seem to be called out during the IETF LC. That discuss needs to be resolved before moving this draft forward. Also, acronyms need to be expanded on their first use.
