This all looks fine to me. Thanks for the quick response!

Hi Spencer,

Thanks for the careful read.

Yes, it's definitely borked.  Latter sentence rewritten to:

   The sender's destination MAC address in any frames that the gateway forwards 
from a legacy L2 network would be the MAC address of the gateway.

The reverse direction case (gateway MAC is source MAC for frames forwarded to a 
legacy L2 network) can be inferred from that statement, so I haven't added text 
for that case.  I did make corresponding wording changes to two other bullets  
- well, at least the borking was consistent  ;-).

That distinction is not important in this draft (e.g., it's not used elsewhere 
in the draft), so I removed it and combined the two bullets into:

  o  Delivered to correct NVE, but could not deliver packet to TS-X.

Yes, it's just a typo I changed: "used to for" -> "used for"

COMMENT:

I found a small number of nits that I couldn't error-correct while
reading, but I'm especially interested in Suresh's Discuss on TTL
decrementing.

I couldn't parse 

   L3 VN to Legacy L2:  This type of gateway forwards packets on between
 L3 VNs and legacy L2 networks such as VLANs or L2 VPNs.  The
 MAC address in any frames forwarded between the legacy L2
 ^
 network would be the MAC address of the gateway.
 ^^^
 
I could guess, but something is borked, and I'm not sure what is meant.

I'm having the same problem with 

   L3 VN to L2 VN:  This type of gateway forwards packets on between L3
 VNs and L2 VNs.  The MAC address in any frames forwarded
 between the L2 VN would be the MAC address of the gateway.
 ^
 
further down.

I know what "hard" and "soft" errors are in my world, but I'm not sure
what's meant here. 

   o  Delivered to correct NVE, but could not deliver packet to TS-X
  (soft error).

   o  Delivered to correct NVE, but could not deliver packet to TS-X
  (hard error).
  
Are these clearly understood terms of art in NV03? If not, could you
provide some parenthetical "i.e.", as you do for other items in the same
list, or some reference if an appropriate reference exists?

Is

   o  Allow different protocols and architectures to be used to for
 ^^ ^^^
  intra- vs. inter-NVA communication.  
  
just a typo, or is there something missing between "to" and "for"?
