== COMMENT ==



-- Section 3.4 --

C.1) Any reason to have a negative value for <fee:credit> ? This seems counter-intuitive to me.



[RDC] I think I see both sides of the fee (non-negative) / credit (negative) struggle. I think if you are thinking about this in accounting terms the definitions may seem backwards but this draft is not about accounting/ledger so much, it is about the fee. In the end this draft is about the “number” (fee) a server is going to charge the client for an action (e.g. what is the fee to create this domain). Not sure if I am making this clearer or mudding it up, but to me it does seem intuitive that one is positive and one is negative. The group thought it was cleaner to make the fees positive and the credits negative.



== NITS ==



Introducing <fee:cd> earlier in the text would improve the readability of the document.



[RDC] Section 3.9 (first section this is mentioned) will be updated to provide a reference to the details in section 5.1.1.
