And as  shared John’s concern, the new text looks like fixing the problem

Thank for having updated the document

(with DISCUSS and COMMENT)

Thanks for hopping threads, I shoulda caught that last one. Your proposed 
change looks fine, I’ll remove my DISCUSS in anticipation of you issuing a new 
version. (One nit on your new text, “in order maximize” should be “in order to 
maximize”.)

I guess when you changed your COMMENT to a DISCUSS it creates a new thread so I 
should reply here as I did to this when it was a COMMENT:

How about something more like:
EVPN Network OAM mechanisms MUST provide in-band monitoring capabilities. OAM 
messages SHOULD be encoded so that they exhibit similar entropy characteristics 
to data traffic in order maximize the fate sharing between OAM and data.

OK.
