COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

1) I agree with Benjamin's discuss point on sec 3.4: there seems to be a
mismatch between the text and the figure that needs to be resolved or clarified
before publication.

2)Use of normative language doesn't always seem quite appropriate, especially
SHALL. Benjamin already identified some cases in section 3.3.

Here is an additional one in sec 4.1:
"The adaptation layer for IPv6 over NFC SHALL support neighbor
   discovery, stateless address auto-configuration, header compression,
   and fragmentation & reassembly."

Also this MAY in sec 5.2:
"In an isolated NFC-enabled device network,
   when two or more LRs MAY be connected with each other, and then they
   are acting like routers, the 6LR MUST ensure address collisions do
   not occur."

Please also check other occurrences.

3) I would have expected to see some discussion about the ability to
potentially connect devices over an IP-gateway device to the Internet that were
previously not designed to be connected to the Internet. However, maybe that's
asked too much as that is certainly something that needs to be addressed by
either a higher layer or the device system architecture as a whole.
