Thanks for your review.

Thanks for this summary!

I notice the section 1.5 where it briefly mentions the evaluation of incorporating some new RFCs to this draft. But it is unclear to me what the decision will be, whether the draft would stop here to provide just backward compatibility or it will take further steps to incorporate RFC 6424. So, before the draft is adopted, I'd like to see draft progress a little further on the to-do list and give and clearer strategy on this.

It’s the other way around… we are waiting for adoption before making those changes, so that we can adequately write based on wg direction. This is as far as we got with an individual draft.

We plan on making these updates of DS/DDS, etc, after adoption.

Thanks!
