>>Hi, Sabine:
>>Thank for writing this short draft. It is a good start.
>>I have a few comments:
>>1. Section 3.2
>>MNC is defined as 2-3 digital decimal number without leading zeros?
>>But in the example following MNC definition, you give an example MNC
>>value 020, I am not sure if the first digital number "0" is leading zero?

[SR     ] In the present case the purpose to extract the MNC exactly as it has 
been 
assigned and encoded and rapidly use this value in cellular networking 
functions. 
The design considers that an MNC1 may be encoded with "020" and another MNC2 
may be encoded "20".   
I think, however MNC1 and MNC2 will likely be associated to different MCCs. 
Currently, some MCCs (like 404, 738) have MNCs encoded in 2 and 3 digits but no 
cases like "20" and "020".

>>2.Section 3.2
>>For Endpoint address format,
>>MCC and MNC is defined as digital decimal number, ECI is defined as digital
>>hex number, I am wondering why not specify MCC, MNC, ECI in the same
>>format?

[SR     ] the motivation is to stay as close as possible to the 3gpp ECGI 
design that specifies
 MCC and MNC being identified with decimal digits and ECI with hexadecimal 
digits

>>3. Section 3.2 Example:
>>Would it be great to make the text consistent with the example
>>"ecgi:211:481:1234abc"?
>>For example, what do we mean by 311? What do we mean by 481?

[SR     ]  I agree. I will try to look for fictitious MCC and MNCs 

>>4. How ALTO Cell Id format is related to endpoint address format?

[SR     ] Actually RFC7285 specifies endpoint address formats for ipv4 and ipv6 
and the purpose of this draft is to agree on a format for cellular endpoints.
Whereas IP addresses are associated to domains ipv4 and ipv6, a 
Cell Id will be associated to the domain "ecgi" 
When a cell is mapped to a PID, say "MyCell3" the ALTO Cell Id will be used 
to specify the endpoints within this PID.

>>5. section 3.4
>>s/7-digita ECI that starts with the 18 bits 0x12348/7-digital ECI Hex number
>>that starts with 18 bits 0x12348 6. Section 3.4 I think 
>>'ecgi:311.481:1234800/18'
>>doesn't matches 'ecgi:311.481:1234abc'.
>>Maybe 'ecgi:311.481:1234abc' should be replaced with 'ecgi:311.481:1234cba'

[SR     ] I'll harmonize and update the examples
