Hi Dan,
thank you for your thorough review of the cc-cv draft and very helpful
comments. As I understand, the adoption call for both documents ran its
course and had not brought enough support from the WG. Please find my
answers and notes in-line tagged GIM>>.

Regards,
Greg

packets of desired length.

GIM>> Echo request/reply can be used as synthetic traffic to measure packet
loss. In such scenario the sequence number must be incremented for each
transmitted packet. I agree that statement that the sequence number is
monotonically increasing in course of the given test session is very
helpful and will add it in the next version. I think that should set
correct and unambiguous expectations on part of changes in the sequence
number at the receiver of echo request or on-path analyzer. The Handle has
been defined as transaction number, i.e. test session ID, and must remain
unchanged through the course of the particular test session.
