A handful of notes gathered while working through the draft earlier.
Sectioned between -- markers.

--
  3.2.4 Domain owner
  [...] This specification uses this term as analogous to an
  Administrative Management Domain as defined in [RFC5598].

  3.2.11. Organizational Domain
  The Organizational Domain for any domain is akin to the
  ADMD described in [RFC5598].

I think "(ADMD)" should be added after spelling out the term in Domain Owner

--
  Table 1

Should "Organizational Domain" have initial caps in the Identifier
Alignment column?

--
  4.7. DMARC Policy Record Format

  sp: [...] Indicates the message handling preference of
      the Domain Owner or PSO for mail using an existing
      subdomain of the prevailing Organizational Domain
      for and not passing DMARC validation.

To me, this sentence does not parse. This may be what the editors will
catch and fix, as John Levine keeps telling me, but maybe we can make it
a bit easier for them?

--
Inconsistent tag notation

There are references to the psd tag; psd= tag; 'psd' tag; "psd=n" tag;
psd=y tag, and similar for the other tag names.

The formal definition says:

  dmarc-tag     = 1*ALPHA equals 1*dmarc-value

The currently known tag names is listed in table 2.

>From that one can infer that the tag is the whole thing, name=value,
while the parts are tag name, and value.

I believe a consistent style should be adopted when referring to a tag
throughout the text.

--
Overriding destination addresses

  the DMARC Policy Record of the Author Domain.

Pedanticness; could maybe more accurately be referred to as

  the DMARC Policy Record discovered for the Author Domain.
