Re: [DNSOP] WGLC for draft-ietf-dnsop-tcp-requirements

Hi,

This is a good document and I support publication.

However, I do have some comments. I scanned the Last Call comments by
others, and they mostly seem like improvements, but some of my
comments below may duplicate others for which I apologize in advance.

Section 3, last paragraph: Cut out wishy-washy superfluous words. Be bold!
OLD
vice-versa.  However, it is the aim of this document to argue that
BETTER
vice-versa.  However, this document argues that
BEST
vice-versa.  However,

Although Cookies are mentioned in this draft with a reference to the
RFC 7873, it would be good to work in the point that the Cookies RFC
recommends use of TCP whenever Cookies are not available as a way to
get some of the benefits of Cookies. Thus, if I remember correctly,
someone following that RFC would use Cookies or, when they are not
available, TCP.

Section 9, last paragraph: Don't be so negative :-)
"not unlike" -> "similar to"

Make the name of Section 2 a bit more explicit, something like
"History of DNS over TCP"

Section 1.1: Update as per RFC 8174.

Lots of references are good but I find it disturbing that all
technical references are shown as Informational. I think a lot of them
should be moved to Normative.

Thanks,
Donald
