[MBONED] draft-ietf-mboned-64-multicast-address-format-03.txt

Hi authors,

Thanks for the revised draft, I find that the revision is in the right
direction.

I am confused on the prefix lengths:
on Figure 2,
ffxx:8000:0:abc::/96
while in Section 3.1
ffxx:8000::/20

How come these are reserved prefixes?
What are the values that are reserved?

If you look at RFC 6052, the unicast translation specification,
64:ff9b::/96 is defined as the Well-Known Prefix. There are no x's in
the prefix definition.

Regards,

Behcet
