Hi Eric,

We have posted the latest version at:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-alto-performance-metrics-25

Could you please take a look to make sure that we have addressed your
DISCUSS and COMMENTS?

In particular,
- We updated the normative references such as RFC8312bis
- We changed the figure to "perf monitoring tools"
- We changed Sec. 4 titles to be consistent
- We fixed all references.

If you find any new issues that we should address, please let us know and
we will fix them with a short turn-around time.

Thank you so much again!
Richard
