Summary:                         The document is well written, and almost ready 
for publication. However, there is a minor issue which I ask the authors to 
address.

Major Issues: None

Minor Issues:

Section 3.12 talks about keep alive signaling.

Q1: The sending of keep alives is a SHOULD, and there are no procedures on how 
to act if keep alives are not received. There isn't even a mechanism to 
negotiate the sending of keep alives. 

So, I assume it means that a peer shall not take any actions if it does NOT 
receive keep alives, or even rely on receiving keep alives to begin with? If 
so, I think it would be good to clarify that.

Q2: As the sending of keep alives is a SHOULD, are there example cases when 
keep alives would NOT be sent?

Q3: The text saying "to each peer it wants to interact with in the future" 
sounds a little strange to me. How does a peer know with whom it wants to 
interact in the future? Perhaps the text instead should talk about peers with 
whom one wants to maintain a signaling channel, or something like that?


Editorial nits: None

Christer
