Summary:  Almost ready
--------


Minor Issues:
-------------

I found the Abstract too complicated and detailed, and the first paragraph of
the Introduction too simple and general. Personally, I'd be inclined to
swap them, with minor adjustments.

OK, but wouldn't it be reasonable to include a short "summary of results"
section? You leave the reader to swallow a whole lot of detailed answers
rather than providing an overview.

Were they told in advance that their names would be published? I think this needs to
be made clear. (Compare RFC6036, where we had a number of respondents that we validated,
but who requested to remain anonymous in the published results.)

I think the second paragraph of Security Considerations would fit better
in section 1.1. "PW/VCCV Survey Overview" where you describe the methodology.

Editorial:
----------

The last sentence of the Abstract is ungrammatical and also conveys no new information.
It could be deleted.
