Dear Ben,

thanks so much for your review. We answer to your comments inline. The

> Substantive Comments:
>
>
>> Requirements Language: The document contains at least a few instances of
>> lower
>
> case "must". Please consider using the boilerplate from RFC 8174.
>
>
>> §3.1.1, figure 4: Did I miss an explanation of why A sends 3 candidate
>> cells
>
> when it needs 2 new cells? I can guess why, but it would be best to
>> explicitly
>
> explain it.
>
>
>>
>> XV: thanks for this comment. We propose to clarify the text with the
>> following sentence.
>
>
>> "The SF running on node A selects 3 candidate cells. More than the
>> required cells are selected to enable node B to select a subset of them and
>> facilitate a successful allocation."
>
>
>> §6.2.2 and §6.2.3: Do you really expect new message types and commands to
>> be
>
> added routinely enough to justify
>
>  a registry?
>
>

>
>
> XV: We do not know what future updates can be made to the 6P protocol, we
>> think having a registry may facilitate the extension of 6P with new
>> commands or even new message types.
>
> This is relevant now as there are still few SFs and hence it may happen
>> that new commands are required as long as new SFs are developed. We are
>> open to discussion if this is not considered a good approach.
>

>
>
>
>> Editorial Comments and Nits:
>
>
>> Abstract: Please expand 6top on first mention.  You do so later in the
>
> paragraph, but not the first time. (This pattern repeats in the document
>> body)
>
>
>>

> XV: thanks for this catch. We expanded it in title, abstract and
>> introduction.
>
>
>>

> §1: Please expand 6TiSCH on first mention.
>
>
>>

> XV: Done, thanks.
>
>
>>

> §3.1.1, Figure 4, step 2: "Node A locks the candidate cells in it schedule
>
> until..." doesn't parse. Should "it" be "its"?
>
>
>>

> XV: thanks we corrected that.
>
>
>>

> §4: This section seems to be about 6top scheduling function
>> _specification_,
>
> not the functions themselves. Is this correct?
>
>
>>

> XV: yes this is correct. We propose to add to the section title the word
>> Specification:
>
> "Requirements for 6top Scheduling Functions (SF) Specification"
>
>
>>

>
>> Appendix A: Seems like this should be part of the IANA considerations.
>
>
>>

> XV: We need further advise on this. We are ok on moving that content to
>> the IANA Considerations sections if this is the general practice in that
>> type of content. Please advise.

kind regards
