Hi Stewart,

Some thoughts.

1. For the terminology part, as a reader, i think it will be more logical to go 
along with this order, just like section 4 did.
P-space, Extended P-space, Q-space, PQ node, Repair tunnel, Repair tunnel end 
then Remote LFA.
To understand the exact concept of Extended P-space, i have to understand 
P-space first which needed to jump into the section of 4.2.1. 
Maybe the terminology part can explain itself without referring formal section 
plus it don't have to explain everything since detail is in the following 
section.

2. Section 3: "This is equivalent to providing a virtual 
   loop-free alternate to supplement the physical loop-free alternates.
   Hence the name "Remote LFA FRR". "
I didn't get the "Hence", i think if "Hence" comes out, it should be "Virtual 
LFA FRR". 
Remote didn't come from virtual i think. Maybe this is not the place to explain 
the RLFA's origin.

3. Section 3.2: "The deployment in an MPLS/LDP environment is
   relatively simple in the data plane as an LDP LSP from S to the
   repair tunnel endpoint (the selected PQ node) is readily available,
   and hence does not require any new protocol extension or design
   change.  "
   
   Section 7: "To establish an targeted LDP session with a candidate remote LFA
   repair target node the repairing node (S) needs to know what IP
   address that the remote LFA repair target is willing to use for
   targeted LDP sessions.  Ideally this is provided by the remote LFA
   repair target advertising this address in the IGP in use.  Which
   address is used, how this is advertised in the IGP, and whether this
   is a special IP address or an IP address also used for some other
   purpose is out of scope for this document and must be specified in an
   IGP specific RFC."
   
TLDP session is per failed link in RLFA. So it should be established 
automatically without network operator's involvment.
As stated above, the ip address used to establish TLDP should have one way to 
advertisebe.
Especially in MT scenario, maybe i want to use different ip address for 
different MT.
These things should be specified by specific RFC.

4. Section 3.2: "Consequently, the repair tunnel used
   must be provisioned beforehand in anticipation of the failure.  Since
   the location of the repair tunnels is dynamically determined it is
   necessary to automatically establish the repair tunnels.  "

The repair tunnels are established beforehand. After the failure happended, 
network will converge again, 
but this old repair tunnel has done its work, so will it be broken down to 
reclaim resource and re-establish when recover convergence happened?

5. Section 4.3, I think some of these functions missed some parameters.

Should it be like this:

    Compute_Neighbor_SPFs(self, fail_intf) //self's neighobr is computing
    
    Compute_Extended_P_Space(self, fail_intf) //self is computing EP
    
    Compute_Q_Space(dest, fail_intf)    //dest is computing Q
    
    Intersect_Extended_P_and_Q_Space(self, dest, fail_intf) //PQ is per 
fail_intf
    
          Compute_Extended_P_Space(fail_intf)
          foreach node y in network
              y.in_extended_P_space = false
              // Extend P-space to the P-spaces of all reachable
              // neighbours
              foreach interface intf in self
                  if (intf.remote_node != fail_intf.remote_node)    /*In 
broadcast network, 
                                                                                
         *if the link down it will affect all nodes on this link, 
                                                                                
         *not only one remote_node. */
                      if ( D_opt(intf.remote_node, y) <
                           D_opt(intf.remote_node, self) +
                           D_opt(self,fail_intf.remote_node) +
                           D_opt(fail_intf.remote_node,y) )
                       y.in_extended_P_space = true

 From my previous email, you will see that I did
everything that was minuted at the IETF meeting
except the extra sim, which I have not been provided
with.

As duty editor, I think that we are now ready
for WG Last Call on this draft.
