Tal:

This looks good to me.  I have adjusted the shepherds report and Donald can
forward this to the AD/IESG.

Sue,

Thanks for the comments.
I posted an updated draft that addresses these comments.
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-trill-loss-delay-04

Thanks,
Tal.

Donald:

I agree that the normative reference [OAM-FRAMEWK] (now [RFC7174]) can be
changed to an informative reference, which would avoid the down reference.

On the textual "4.4.1 ", if it is easier - let the RFC Editor fix the final
form.  I will note the RFC editor should watch for it, and remove the
editorial comment for the authors. 

On the IANA suggestion,  I agree that IANA should not have control over the
registries that IEEE 802.1 has. The question is whether IANA should track
the non-IETF specifications that IETF drafts includes.  Unless someone
objects, I will remove this comment from the shepherds report. 

I'll see if anyone else has comments on the shepherds report today until 3pm
ET, and then change it.

Hi Sue,

Thanks for the Shepherd review.

Yes, these need to be updated.

I'm not sure. There is a lot of interesting background in the framework
document, but do you actually have to look at it to implement this draft?
The closest I can find to that is the following text in the draft:

      This document does not define procedures for packet loss
      computation based on counting user data. For further details see
      [OAM-FRAMEWK].

This sort of looke like a normative reference but really, I think it should
be changed to something like

      This document does not define procedures for packet loss
      computation based on counting user data for the reasons given in
      Section 5.1 of [RFC7174].

So, unless I'm missing something, I think the normative reference to
[OAM-FRAMEWK] (now [RFC7174]) can be changed to an informative reference,
which would avoid the down reference.

I'm slightly confused. There seem to be two occurrences of "4.1.1" but
neither looks like that and there seem to be zero occurrences of "4.4.1"...
Near the beginning of Section 4.1.1 there is a "3.2.1.  ,"
(with two spaces).  Typically I think that sort of thing is due to weirdness
with MS Word adding a space. It may be hard to fix if the original is in
that form, but the RFC Editor can clear such stuff up.

IANA registries for the OpCodes and TLV Types values that are available for
IETF assignment are being set up by draft-eastlake-iana-cfm-considerations
which is currently in IESG ballot. However, this draft doesn't need to
allocat any additional values. IEEE 802.1 is in charge of these code points
and has allocated blocks to ITU-T, for Y.1731, and to IETF for TRILL and
other IETF uses.  I'm not sure that IANA having informative duplicative of
code points in this space that are not on IANA control is such a good idea.

Thanks,
Donald
