Re: [spring] 6MAN WGLC: draft-ietf-6man-sids

Hi Jen,

I support publication.

Few comments
- Introduction ends abruptly for my taste. Perhaps a few lines that state
the purpose of the document would help.
- Do we need to add some text on what happens if the address block assigned
by IANA is not used in the received IPv6 packet?
- This text "This would be useful in identifying and potentially filtering
packets at the edges of the SR Domains as described in Section 4.1.". But
section 4.1 of this I-D does not have any text for this! Do you mean some
other document?

Nits
- remove references from abstract

Further, see inline...

Yes!

I agree that some more guidance would be useful.
