Hello, I'll comment on the template used for Applications Area Directorate (AppsDir) reviews as it may help authors to respond to the reviews. "Please resolve these comments along with any other Last Call comments you may receive. Please wait for direction from your document shepherd or AD before posting a new version of the draft." In plain English, this means that the comments in the review does not bear more weight than a comment submitted by an individual during a Last Call. The Applications Area Directors may or may not agree with the comments of the AppsDir reviewer. The Applications Area Directorate does not have any veto power on a draft. It is suggested that the author(s) asks the document shepherd (RFC 4858) or the Area Director who sponsored the draft for guidance about IETF process, changes that should be made, whether to post a new revision, etc. A review generally list issues as major or minor. I'll use a review performed by Ted Hardie as an example ( http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/apps-discuss/current/msg04847.html ). The reviewer explained why he considered some issues as major. The author discussed about the issues with the reviewer ( http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/apps-discuss/current/msg04859.html ). There isn't a clear-cut rule on what is a major or minor issue. It's up to the reviewer to make a judgement call. It is up to the author(s), or working group, to decide about whether these issues should be resolved and how to do so. Some AppsDir reviews may list nits. These nits are generally editorial issues. For example: "I personally found the Introduction somewhat hard to parse" That doesn't mean that the author has to make changes to the Introduction section. It's an editorial decision. It's up to the authors to determine whether the text should be changed so that the reader can understand it. Regards, S. Moonesamy
