I support this document's publication, and I am willing to continue to 
provide reviews.

I think it would be good if Brendon took a few good pot shots on two fronts:

 1. Passwords on devices are a bad idea IOT devices that are associated
    with north-bound control functions.  This includes bridges, vacuum
    cleaners, ovens, HVACs, and the like.
 2. The strength of security related to the entire solution is not
    something we can seriously address at the protocol level, and that
    should be more crisply stated in 4.11.1.

Thanks again to Brendan for persevering through this work.
