Large in bytes, but most of them don't change the meaning of the text
(it is my opinion that most remarks during the IESG phase were
nitpicking, and that the new -10 version is not an improvment, but it
is not a degradation either.) The whole DHCP discussion is a good
example.

This being said, I've read -10, _and_ the diff, and I believe that, as
I said before, the document is OK and can move forward.

I'm surprised by the new sentence in section 5 "it provides the
maximum protection an attacker will allow". Surely, the attacker, if
s·he has the choice, will not allow anything?
