Hi Vijay,
Thanks for the review! See inline.

Minor issues:
- S1: The draft says, "This specification does so by following the
outline of ICE itself, and calling out the additions and changes
necessary in each section of ICE to support TCP candidates."
Does this imply that this specification normatively updates
rfc5425 (the ICE RFC)? If so, this is not reflected in the
masthead for the document as "Updates: RFC 5425".
Actually no. These additions are specific to TCP so the (UDP) ICE RFC is
not updated. In an effort to keep this draft reasonably compact, only
the delta from the RFC5245 is defined. So, when something is not defined
here, the behavior defined in RFC5245 is assumed.
- S4.1, last paragraph. It says that, "TCP-based STUN transactions
are paced out at one every Ta seconds." However, rfc5245 Section
16 says that, "These transactions are paced at a rate of one
every Ta millisecond, ..."
I suspect that in your draft, Ta refers to the same Ta as in
rfc5245, so it seems to me that they should be paced one every
Ta milliseconds to conform to rfc5245, no?
This one is a bit tricky since even RFC5245 is not consistent with this
(e.g., section 5.8. of RFC5245 says "Ta seconds later", and section
16.1. is even more vague). We chose to use "seconds" so that the
formulas in 16.1. of 5245 would have right units, but actually in the
text 5245 does use "milliseconds" more often. I'm fine either way but
since you found this confusing, probably the milliseconds is a better
choice.
Nits:
- S3, in the sentence, "Stream-oriented transports introduce another
wrinkle, since they require a way to frame the connection so that the
application and STUN packets can be extracted in order to determine
which is which."
s/which is which/STUN packets from application layer traffic/
OK.
- S4.1,
s/any assumptions that they make about deployments/any assumptions
made about deployments/
OK. We'll fix these in the next revision.
Thanks,
Ari
