Thank you very much for your review, Mirja.

I agree.  We had a lot of back-and-forth in the working group about
normative language in this document, and but for the Standards Action
section.  I'm personally in support of more of it, but ended up having
to strip out existing instances of normative language based on working
group consensus.

I personally am in favor of this, not just for this document but for
all RFCs.   RFC 6982 recommends that the section be removed, but I'd
be happy to help evolve that recommendation.
