I had sent out comments on this a while back, and none of them have been 
addressed.
To summarize the issues:
1) What happens when one of the CE-rbridge links fails? The draft doesn't 
talk about this scenario. I listed the possible solutions in my earlier 
email; are the authors planning to adopt one of them, or do they have 
another fix in mind?

2) The solution doesn't work if the CE switches are interconnected, but 
this is but this is not documented in the draft. What happens if they get 
interconnected accidentally? What is the process for recovery? This needs 
to be discussed in the draft.
