Hi Murray,

thank you for this review.

I’m currently collecting updates into https://github.com/cabo/ace-aif until the 
ID submission opens again.

I’ll leave that part to shepherd and AD.

(As an author, I always wonder how active my role in generating this writeup 
should be.
Clearly, it is more useful if it has a strictly independent perspective.
But that is maybe a different discussion.)

I don’t think the areas of application of this format are limited to the ACE 
protocols.

(The intention, of course, also isn’t to push out all other authorization 
models in the IETF…
I was hoping that should be obvious, but that is also why the title is 
“**An** Authorization Information Format (AIF) for ACE”.)

Fixed in https://github.com/cabo/ace-aif/commit/0f53118

That is indeed the more correct way of doing this.

I put a copy of that paragraph right as the second paragraph of Section 2 
(Information Model).
I’m not quite sure whether the redundancy of saying that again in Section 6 
would be worse than not saying it again would be; I removed the copy in Section 
6 though.

Fixed in https://github.com/cabo/ace-aif/commit/21f3afe

Grüße, Carsten
