Hi Tom,

I think this document would be helpful for operators to understand
different solutions. Just two quick questions:
1) As now the outline is a little similar to the deployment drafts of
different solutions, are you going to give step-by-step guidance for
readers about how to deploy these solutions, or just the comparison among
them ? For me, I think this draft should focus on the differences and
readers can refer to each deployment draft for further reading.
2) Does this draft only cover softwire solutions ? As far as I know,
T-mobile has deployed XLAT in their LTE network. So should XLAT be included
in this draft?

I may come back with further comments. Thanks!

Best wishes
Qiong
