Summary: This document is almost ready for publication as a proposed standard.

Major issues:
What is the registration / collision avoidance strategy for resource type (rt) and interface description (if) values? They are both defined as opaque strings which can happen to be URIs. So there seems to be potential for collision.

Minor issues:
Would it be sensible, in the introduction, when the well-known URI is first introduced, to refer to it as a "well-known relative URI"? Should this document register a resource type (rt) and interface description (if) for the server resource manager itself? The text refers to using multicast to find resources, with filtering based on rt and if. (This would, I think, be defined in section 4, and registered in the IANA considerations section?) Presumably all devices would support the interface, which is why a resource type for the master server would seem useful.
