Hi Scott, two points:

1. I think there is an issue with the last paragraph of Section 2.1, which says 
"RFC documents published using the Independent Submission stream do not meet 
that requirement [to have "a permanent and readily available public 
specification"]".

This would prevent ISE RFCs from being registered in the EPP Extension 
Registry, which I do not think was the intention, since the conversation from 
which it arose was about the use of an IETF URN as the namespace URI. Maybe 
Andy can chime in here.

I suggest removing that sentence, and changing the third paragraph of Section 
2.1.1 as follows:

Old:

Non-IETF namespaces must be used for non-IETF specifications; the designated 
experts may need to work with a registrant to identify URIs that can be added 
to the IETF XML Registry.

New:

Non-IETF namespaces must be used for non-IETF specifications (which includes 
RFC documents published using the Independent Submission stream); the 
designated experts may need to work with a registrant to identify URIs that can 
be added to the IETF XML Registry.

2. I am unclear on the rules about MUST vs must in BCP documents, but there 
many instances of lowercase "must" that I think are important, and should be 
uppercased, if not to MUST then maybe to SHOULD instead?

G.
