JP> In this example, we first explain how the headers flags are determined. To 
help clarify I modified the text:

OLD:

As far as the constraint is concerned, if the constraint signalled in the DIO 
message is not satisfied, the advertising node is just not selected as a parent 
by the node that processes the DIO message.

NEW:

As far as the constraint is concerned, the object body will carry a node energy 
constraint object defined in Section 3.1 indicating that nodes must be 
mains-powered: if the constraint signalled in the DIO message is not satisfied, 
the advertising node is just not selected as a parent by the node that 
processes the DIO message.

> Do you need to provide a value to prec field?

JP> As indicated earlier, the Prec field is only useful when a DAG Metric 
Container contains several Routing Metric objects. In this example, there is 
just one metric (the node energy is a constraint).

JP> We added "recommended values" until IANA confirms.

JP> Done.

JP> Done.

JP> Done.

JP> Just to have the registry already in place. There is more than likely be 
TLVs defined in a very near future. This also allows to make sure that all TLVs 
have the same structure.

JP> The A field is a 3-bit field and there are currently 4 defined values.

JP> This is just because we put all registries belonging to the Routing 
Metric/Constraint Common Header in the same section.

JP> The text was misplaced, thanks.

Many Thanks. These changes are all incorporated in revision 15.
