Sean/Tom,
Tom had some comments on the previous (I believe) version of this
draft, are they addressed to your satisfaction Tom?

<tp>
Not really; it still says

"    o BGPSEC Router Certificates MUST include the BGPSEC EKU defined in
      Section 3.9.5."
but the I-D has no section 3.9.5 so it is unclear what is meant.

And I [still] find it hard to parse
' The validation procedure used for BGPSEC Router Certificates is
   identical to the validation procedure described in Section 7 of
   [RFC6487] except that where "this specification" refers to [RFC6487]
   in that profile in this profile "this specification" is this
   document.'
{a bit like those brain teasers where a single sentence has 13 consecutive
'and's but lacks punctuation}

Sean, if Tom's ok with the changes, should we move this along?
