Re: [VRRP] Review of draft-ietf-vrrp-unified-spec-02

Hi Christian, 

Thank you for the comments.  I'll look into them and I'm copying the
VRRP list for their feedback.  

Regarding the terminology, the draft explicitly states why we didn't use
"IP" though technically correct to mean "IPv4 or IPv6".  I personally am
less worried about IPvX being mistaken for IPX than I am about IP being
mistaken for IPv4 (and not IPv6).  How would you feel about s/IPvX/IPxZ/
? 

BTW, there are theads started on VRRP list to discuss Mark Handley's TSV
directorate review.

Regards,
Steve
