Hi Jeff, Thanks for pushing out the v25 with the bulk of the changes (the most important ones).
I'll wait for the response to my review and update posted for draft-ietf-bfd-secure-sequence-numbers given the inter-dependency between the two. I hope Mahesh (and his co-authors) will do so soonish. Also for draft-ietf-bfd-stability. I'll put all 3 on hold at my end until I get a go ahead from the authors on all 3 before doing a final check/pass. If any response or clarification is required from my side before then, please let me know.
