Hi, Sorry to be so late with this but I had some personal distractions recently.
I am very surprised by a change that was made to this draft after IETF Last Call and with no discussion, as far as I am aware, on the WG list. It is this additional sentence in the first paragraph: "Although it does not require to be configured to operate properly, it supports custom configuration by means of variable priority assignments, and can therefore be used in fully autonomic as well as professionally managed networks." Firstly, this is a substantive change so I believe it should have been discussed by the WG. Secondly, the second half of the sentence seems completely unjustified, and is way outside the Homenet context anyway. I believe that the range of requirements for autonomic and/or professionally managed networks is far too great to assert that "variable priority assignments" meet the needs; much more general policy intent might be needed in autonomic networks, for example, and the work on this topic is only just starting in Anima. As a specific example, an international enterprise network might have geographical requirements for prefix assignmnent. Quite apart from the process issue, I believe that the second half of the added sentence is wrong and must be deleted.
