[Authors] These are defined in RFC5213. We can add a explicit reference
first time we introduce these terms.

[Authors] The client does not always use port 68. Therefore, we believe
current rule is flexible and sufficient.

[Authors] We summarize what the document is defining in the
Introduction:

"   This specification defines extensions to the Proxy Mobile IPv6
   protocol for allowing mobility support to the mobile networks
   attached to a mobile router.  The mobile router can request the
   mobility entities in the Proxy Mobile IPv6 domain for one or more
   delegated IP prefixes using DHCP Prefix Delegation extensions
   [RFC3633], or through other means such as static configuration, or
   access technology specific mechanisms."

[Authors] We'll fix this in -12 (by removing "that").

[Authors] We believe it is better to use the labels for the sake of
ensuring the correctness of the text.

[Authors] Which acronyms are you referring to? in the text or in the
figure 2?

[Authors] We'll check if we can improve the readability of this section.

Thanks,
