Re: [RTG-DIR] RtgDir review: draft-ietf-rtgwg-enterprise-pa-multihoming-07

Nic,

Thanks for the review.  We have uploaded a new revision (-08) addressing
your comments as well as comments from Martin Vigoureux.

Below is a summary of the changes.

====
We addressed your comment about the title by adding "IPv6" to the title.
====
We addressed your comment about convergence after failures by adding the
following text.

   Multihoming with PA
   addresses and NAT has created the expectation of a fairly quick and
   simple recovery from network failures.  Alternatives should to be
   evaluated in terms of the speed and complexity of the recovery
   mechanism.

====
In response to feedback from Martin, we modified the last paragraph of the
introduction
to bring it up to date with the current text, and to make it clearer that
although section 3 uses
the concepts of source-prefix-scoped routing advertisements and forwarding
tables without stopping
to provide a precise description of how source-prefix-scoped routing
advertisements are used to
generate source-prefix-scoped forwarding tables, the reader can find the
more detailed description in
section 4.
====
In the process of cleaning up the ID-Nits, we discovered that RFC3315,
RFC4242, and RFC3736 have
all been obsoleted by RFC8415, so we adjusted those references
appropriately,
====
After a discussion with David Lamparter in Prague, I removed text that
equivocates
about the functional equivalence of the forwarding behavior described
in this draft compared to that described in
draft-ietf-rtgwg-dst-src-routing.
====
We fixed a large number of spelling and grammatical errors pointed out by
Martin.
====
Thanks,
Chris
