Re: New Version Notification for draft-leiba-3777upd-eligibility-01.txt

Barry, SM,

Given what started as a simple change has turned into many changes (14 changed paragraphs by my count), I am starting to think that doing a RFC3777 update document would be a better approach.  Then it would be easy to look at a diff from RFC3777 and see all of the changes.
