I have read this draft. I admit the content is currently beyond me.

Polite request:  can you please tweak the layout of a future version to 
make it clear what exactly is normative in the standards track portion, 
or provide some clear separation of normative text from discussion (or 
even removal of the discussion)?

  e.g. Section 4. is background information but 4.1 appears normative 
and 4.2 is discussion mixed with normative text

Thanks.
