I have read the xml diff and I agree with all changes made.


Just noticed an incomplete response for this comment, responding again to it.

<M.S.>The intent here is to instruct clients to send CMP messages in as few 
packets as possible. Fragmentation of CMP messages may cause the server to 
buffer packets which will consume resources on the server. With clients 
instructed to send CMP messages in as few packets as possible, servers can 
choose to ignore fragmented CMP messages to mitigate such DOS attacks.


So maybe:

Implementations SHOULD use the available datagram size and avoid small 
datagrams containing partial CMP PKIMessage data in order to reduce memory 
usage for packet buffering.

Please submit a new version to the datatracker with these changes, so we can 
start the IETF Last Call.
