Hi,

My 0.02 of your favourite currency denomination:

Nits:

Line 94: There’s a typo: “twp” instead of “two”
Line 202: Grammatical error: “it’s” instead of “its”
Line 317: Typo: “see see” instead of “see”

The middle paragraph of section 6. feels a bit foggy to me:

Here’s what my take of the situation described would be:

“Operators might be utilising hardware with limited resources. In such
cases, BGPsec protocol capability negotiation allows for a resource constrained 
edge
router to just hold its own signing key(s) and sign its announcements, but not 
receive
signed announcements. Therefore, the router would not have to deal with the 
majority of
the RPKI, potentially saving the need for additional hardware."

What is “smallish" is more relative than, say, “resource constrained”.
Perhaps an operator uses a large edge router that is overloaded or just
wants to keep their processing overhead low.

Kind regards,
Aris Lambrianidis
