=============================================================== 
Submitting Comments via TRAC 
1. To submit an issue in TRAC, you first need to login to the IAB site on the tools server:

2. If you don't already have a login ID, you can obtain one by navigating to this site: 
http://trac.tools.ietf.org/newlogin 
 
3. Once you have obtained an account, and have logged in, you can file an issue by navigating to the ticket entry form: 
http://trac.tools.ietf.org/wg/iab/trac/newticket 
 
4. When opening an issue: 
a. The Type: field should be set to "defect" for an issue with the current document text, or "enhancement" for a proposed addition of functionality (such as an additional requirement).

d. The Component: field should be set to the document you are filing the issue on. 
e. The Version: field should be set to "1.0".

g. The Keywords: and CC: fields can be left blank unless inspiration seizes you. 
h. The Assign To: field is generally filled in with the email address of the editor.
