Document: draft-ietf-tcpm-rfc1948bis-01 Reviewer: Ben Campbell Review Date: 2011-01-01 IETF LC End Date: 2011-01-02 IESG Telechat date: 2011-01-03 Summary: This draft is basically ready for publication as a proposed standard. I have a couple of minor comments and nits that might be worth considering, but probably shouldn't block anything. Major issues: None Minor issues: -- section 3, paragraph after ISN formula: "It is vital that F not be computable…" If it's vital for security reasons, it seems like this would be worthy of normative language. -- Normative reference to RFC1321 This is a normative downref. It's a reasonable downref (maybe even the canonical reasonable downref). I call it out for the sake of completeness. -- Appendix B, Removal of "A Common TCP Bug" section: Can you comment on why the section was removed? Nits/editorial comments: -- abstract The abstract should explicitly mention the update to RFC793 -- section 1, 2nd paragraph: Please expand ISN on first mention -- informative references: Is there any way to avoid orphaning the last reference fragment? It's confusing to find half a reference at the top of the next page.
