Hi authors, hi shepherd/Phil,

Just wanted to quickly let you know that I’ve started the IETF last call just now in order to hopefully get this document on the telechat in 3 weeks. 

I’ve not finished my AD review completely but I am nearly done and convinced that this doc is ready to start IETF last call. So far I have only some editorial or smallish comments and nits which I will send in detail beginning of next week and can be address during or after IETF last call.

Only one request for now (mostly with an eye on the IESG evaluation): The draft says that changes are made which are not backward compatible (see sec 3.1). That’s fine, however, it would be good to also explain a little bit in the draft as well as in the shepherd write up (!) why this is okay. My understanding is that in case of a v0 server the connection will “just" fall-back to non-MPTCP capable and that this is acceptable in current deployment situation. Please confirm and at least update the write-up accordingly as soon as possible!

Thanks!
Mirja
