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

I have some minor comments:

(1) Please expand CAPPORT.

(2) §1: s/This document standardizes an architecture/This document describes an
architecture   This is not a standard track document.

(3) §1: "MAY allow a device to be alerted"   Other parts of the document (even
in the same section) talk about "devices can be notified" or "informs an
end-user", while "alert" is not mentioned anywhere else.  Given that "alert"
has the normative attachment, it would be nice to use consistent language.

(4) §2.1: "E.g....MAY avoid updating..."   s/MAY/may   This is an example, not
a normative statement.

(5) §3.1: "An Identifier MAY be a field...Or, an Identifier MAY be an ephemeral
property..."   s/MAY/may  These seem to be statements and not normative
statements.
