Hi Éric,

With Erik having clarified your last DISCUSS comment, it leaves the other two 
comments.

I have updated the Shepherd’s writeup to indicate the correct responsible AD 
(me).

As far as idnits is concerned, I do not know why it is giving the warning, but 
as you note, as the author of RFC 6991, he has the right privilege. But I will 
involve the RFC Editor once the document clears the DISCUSS.

Let me know if you need additional clarification that will enable you to clear 
your DISCUSS.

Cheers.
