[Same preface I gave when I spoke at the mic in the WG session: I am
speaking as an individual IETF participant, not as an AD. This comment
by itself will not cause me to DISCUSS the document when it comes to the
IESG. If the consensus of the WG is that I am wrong about this, I may
validly end up in the "rough" part of the "rough consensus". However,
this is a comment that needs to be addressed.]
I think this document is real problem and I object to the current form
it is in. Having an algorithm without explanation as to *why* one ought
to perform the steps in the algorithm is completely inappropriate and
not worthy of WG publication. We do not do blind instructions without
explanation in the IETF. It also makes it nearly impossible for the IETF
community to review the document to see if the instructions given are
sane or not. I think the document either needs to be completely
rewritten or needs to be withdrawn.
