[Ballot comment]
I had some questions as I started reading this draft, but you did a nice job of answering them.  Thanks for your work on this!

[Ballot discuss]
* Section 4.3.

* How is this Element ID (255) allocated? Is this going to have to come from the IEEE or is it part of an experimental range? I am just checking to make sure that we are not missing a required action for this.

* What is a "single octet integer in little-endian format"? Why does endianness matter for a single byte field?

"Element ID, Length, and ID Extension are all single octet integers in little-endian format."
