Re: [mile] Stephen Farrell's Discuss on draft-ietf-mile-rfc5070-bis-22: (with DISCUSS and COMMENT)

[Kathleen Moriarty <[e-mail]>]

Roman,

I'm looking at Stephen's updated discuss and think he may want more on
the confidence surrounding threat actors and that's reasonable.  Can
you look at his updated discuss point and respond?  It would be nice
to wrap this up soon if we can.

Alissa's discuss remains, so we can follow up on that one next.

Thanks,
Kathleen
