Sorry about the late feedback -- things got kind of busy there before
and during IETF 83. :)

Some time ago I reviewed an earlier version of this document. The
revised I-D is much more readable and well-focused, so kudos to the
authors! I have only a few small comments...

Abstract and Introduction: "important" contact fields -- they are
important to CAB but not *necessarily* to anyone else (although they
seem generally useful to me). I'd remove this word.

Section 1.1: s/search paradigm/search function/

The LEVEL parameter has possible (do you mean "allowable" or "defined"?)
values of "beginner", "average", and "expert" when used with EXPERTISE
and "high", "medium", and "low" when used with HOBBY or INTEREST. Why
not just use "high", "medium", and "low" for all three? IMHO an
EXPERTISE of "low" is the same as an EXPERTISE of "beginner" (etc.) so I
see no reason for different lexical representations of what is the same
basic concept.
