receive.  Please wait for direction from your document shepherd or AD before

Document: draft-templin-ironbis-12
Title: The Intradomain Routing Overlay Network (IRON)
Reviewer: Murray S. Kucherawy
Review Date: February 20, 2013
IETF Last Call Date: January 30, 2013
IESG Telechat Date: February 21, 2013

Summary: This document appears to be ready for evaluation and approval.
However, most of the content exceeds my areas of expertise, so I have
focused only on trying to find those parts that appear likely to affect
applications in a direct way, or on IETF procedural points.

Apologies for the tardiness of the review.

Major Issues: None.  This appears like interesting work, but I infer
from the document's content that most of the work here concerns operations
well below and thus not visible to the application layer.

Minor Issues: The [RO-CR] and [SAMPLE] references don't appear to point to
I-Ds, though they say "Work in Progress".  If they are I-Ds, they should be
named; if not, I don't believe those references are complete.  Where are
they published?

Nits: I couldn't parse the last sentence of Section 10:

   IRON does not otherwise introduce any new issues to complications raised
   for NAT traversal or for applications embedding address referrals
   in their payload.

"issues to complications raised"?
