Summary: This document has minor issues that need to be resolved, along 
with a few nits.

Major issues:

Minor issues:

1. If the requested TLV Type does not immediately define all the 
corresponding type extensions for versions of that type, the Expert 
Reviewer or IANA will be faced with the task of choosing an appropriate 
Type value within which to place the extension. No guidance has been 
provided for this purpose. What is the intention?

2. No IANA Considerations have been provided for the following registries:
     TC Message-Type-specific Message TLV Types
     TC Message-Type-specific Address Block TLV Types
     HELLO Message-Type-specific Message TLV Types
     HELLO Message-Type-specific Address Block TLV Types
     SMF_TYPE Message TLV Type Extensions
     SMF_NBR_TYPE Address Block TLV Type Extensions



Nits/editorial comments:

Sec. 1, third from last paragraph: s/consisteng/consistent/

Sec. 3.1, s/reguested/requested/ (both outer bullets, first line of each)

IANA Considerations, following Table 11: the current registry name is 
"ICV[TIMESTAMP] Address TLV Type Extensions" (missing the word "Block"). 
This is inconsistent with the other address block TLV types. I suggest, 
in place of the current text for these two extension registries, text to 
resolve the inconsistency, as follows:

OLD

    The IANA Registry "ICV[TIMESTAMP] Address Block TLV Type Extensions"
    is unchanged.

NEW

    The IANA Registry "ICV[TIMESTAMP] Address TLV Type Extensions" is
    unchanged except to add the word "Block" after "Address" in the
    registry name.

IANA Considerations, Table 13 and preceding text: the current registry 
name is "NBR_ADDR_TYPE ....". This document refers to it as 
"NBR_ADDR_TYPES ...." (i.e., plural). The inconsistency needs to be 
resolved.
