Dear Qiao,

thank you for the review.  We will post a new version of the draft
soon, which will reflect your comments.  For details see below.

Thanks again,
Sebastian

Trailing space before a line break in the XML source...  Thanks for being
picky - we want to produce high-quality documents, both wrt. content
and formatting.

We have changed it.

we have changed "should" + "could"  to  "should" + "may".

We think it is better to indicate a preference for one of these options,
therefore the "should". Note that we are using lowercase should and may,
not the RFC2119 ones, as this is not an issue of interoperability.

This is a remains from moving that section from the main part to the
appendix. We have reworded it:

This appendix itemizes requirements that have been collected before the
design phase and that are reflected by the design of the ALTO
Cross-Domain Server Discovery Procedure.

You are right. We have fixed that.

Thanks again,
Sebastian
