Thank you for the work put into this document.

Please find below some non-blocking COMMENT points (but replies would be

== COMMENTS ==

!!! I was about to ballot a DISCUSS on this point... In the absence of a
section about existing implementations for such a new transport, I really
wonder whether standard track should be used rather then experimental. Did the
authors/WG run some simulations ?

Happy to have read Colin Perkins' review for the Transport ART, which has
provided me with some confidence in this brand new transport protocol. I am
also trusting the TSV Area Directors on this point.

-- Section 1 --
I had in mind that constrained network are well protected either at layer-2 or
by having an air-gap or firewall at their edges, so, a DoS seems quite
improbable in those deployments. Should this 'use case' really be part of the
introduction? Or is it simply linked to the DOTS use case ? In either case, the
DoS should be more detailed.

-- Section 3 --
Any reason why 'CON' is not expanded/explained on first use ?
