Med: Thanks.

Med: The rationale we adopted in this draft is as follows:

* there are three major flavors: full stateful, full stateless, and binding mode
* all these modes can support assigning a full or a shared IPv4 address

As such Public4over6 is classified as part of binding mode (see Section 3)

   (2)  Binding approach (e.g., Lightweight 4over6 (Lw4o6)
        [I-D.cui-softwire-b4-translated-ds-lite],
        [I-D.ietf-softwire-public-4over6] or MAP 1:1
        [I-D.ietf-softwire-map] ): Requires a single per-subscriber
        state (or a few) to be maintained in the Service Provider's
        network.

Med: The current text of Section 3.2 says:

             +---------+-------------------------------------+
             |    Mode | Provisioning Information            |
             +---------+-------------------------------------+
             | DS-Lite | Remote IPv4-in-IPv6 Tunnel Endpoint |
             |   Lw4o6 | Remote IPv4-in-IPv6 Tunnel Endpoint |
             |         | IPv4 Address                        |
             |         | Port Set                            |
             |   MAP-E | Mapping Rules                       |
             |         | MAP Domain Parameters               |
             +---------+-------------------------------------+

                     Table 4: Provisioning Information

   Note: MAP Mapping Rules are translated into the following
   configuration parameters: Set of Remote IPv4-in-IPv6 Tunnel
   Endpoints, IPv4 Address and Port Set.

Can you please explicit the change you want to see appear in that text? Thanks.

Med: Do you think this is different from the approach adopted in Section 4.3?
