Mark,
    I will go ahead and change the document to reflect the
recommendation levels suggested and also would incorporate the
applicable comments received.  

However, there is one item (which I have brought up earlier) which needs
some help to be resolved. We need to mention in the document, the
reasoning for the chosen levels for each mechanism, currently it is not
clear and it makes the document incomplete.

for eg, in particular:- some of the reasons why data mitigation was
singled out and classified under MAY is because 

"it needs extra variables to implement this and it is not as simple as
the other 2 mechanisms" 
"even with AS in place data mitigation is a MAY because originally it
was "decided" to tag it as MAY.

I am not sure we can put such a verbiage (like the one listed above) in
the document.  My suggestion is something like "it was felt that the
data mitigation is a MAY beause it is harder to tear down the connection
compared to the other 2 mechanisms OR in other words additional
complexity and conditions required to cause harm when compared to the
other two"  

I am open to suggestions. 

Thanks,
-Anantha
