(1) CORE used but not defined.

(2) Reference in appx to IANA ports only.

(3) 3.1[7] refers to transactional security without defining it.

(4) 3.4.2[2] talks about validity without defining it - in particular,
preemption not discussed.

(5) 3.4.3[2] has 1 IP address with multiple name servers. Is that really
what you want?

(6) 3.4.3 does not require the association of info with registrars, but
assumes it in [4].

(7) 3.4.5 does not require the ability to do unapproved transfer (such as
if registrar is dead).

(8) Section 4 (MUST not introduce limitations) is not really possible.

(9) Internationalization requirements are (surprisingly) reasonably OK.

(10) Searchability requirements are VERY weak (by ID only) - that is
probably how it should be.

(11) The ID has NSI-specific registrations in it even though its a WG doc,
i.e. if the registrations has to be done, they should be in a separate
document

(12) The IANA considerations says:
These assignments should be preserved as long as the corresponding systems
are operational.  Additional IANA services might be required to support
testing and deployment of protocol implementations.

1/ how whould the IANA know to zap registrations?
   (this partcular problem is removed if the NSI registrations are removed)
2/ how is the IANA to know what to do to do the additiopnal registrations?
