----------------------------------------------------------------------
COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

A few minor comments:

Substantive:

-1.3, definition of "int": Is that really _unsigned_ or negative?  Or is
it a signed integer than can be negative or non-negative? (contrasting
with uint?)  (Or is int merely a parent of nint and uint?)

-3: What is the scope of uniqueness for map labels? I expected it to be
the map, but the text immediately aftewards suggests the scope may be the
whole message. Whatever the answer, it would help to be explicit.

- Informative References: [I-D.irtf-cfrg-eddsa]: Other algorithm
references are normative. Why not this one?

Editorial:

"Contributing to this Memo" section: Is this intended to stay in the
final RFC? If not, it might be worth a note to the RFC editor.

-1, first paragraph, last sentence: Comma splice.

-1, 2nd paragraph: MAC usually expands to Message Authentication _Code_.

-2, 6th paragraph, last sentence: s/method/methods  (assuming the
following list is a list of methods, and not steps in a method.

-3, definition of protected: 

-4.1,  "COSE_Sign_Tagged = #6.991(COSE_Sign) ; Replace 991 with TBD1": Is
the comment intended as a note to the RFC editor? If so, it might be
helpful to label it as such.

-4.3, first bullet: "If multiple items are included, care needs to be
taken that data
      cannot bleed between the items."
Is this talking about data framing, or something else?
