Summary: This draft is ready for publication as a Proposed Standard
but please consider fixing the following issues.
Section 2:
* This sentence does not read right.
However, the amount of information
has become so important that, when dealing with highly granular
information such as Flow information, a push mechanism (as opposed
to a pull mechanism, such as SNMP) is the only solution for
routers whose primary function is to route packets.
Did you mean that "the amount of information is so large" (or)
"collecting this information has become so important" instead of "the
amount of information has become so important"?

* I understand aggregation based on time but what does "space" mean
here? I thought that granular flow export was desired. Can you clarify?
Furthermore, in order to reduce the export bandwidth requirements,
the network elements have to integrate mediation functions to
aggregate the collected information, both in space and time.

aggregate the collected information, both in space (typically from
different line cards or different Exporters) and time.
