  I've taken a look at the latest draft, and have some serious concerns.

  Specifically, large chunks of the Security Considerations sections appear to have been lifted from my post to the list:

https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/opsawg/tU2wBFIV4MkpKChWn6EvrqeZtXU

  There are minor edits, but multiple sentences are copied word for word.  Sentences which don't occur in the -05 draft, but do appear in my review, and subsequently are copied to the -06 draft with minor edits.

  Multiple paragraphs are copied with only minor edits.  The total amounts to about a page of text.

  While I appreciate that the document is improving, blatant copying of my text without attribution is entirely inappropriate.

  What are the chairs recommendations?

  Alan DeKok.
