Secondly, in Section 7 the IANA allocation is described as 
"temporary", yet there is no definition of what "temporary" means in 
this context. The authors should be consulted to define "temporary" 
in terms of clear instructions to IANA (e.g. unitil otherwise 
instructed by the IESG, or for 5 years from the data of the allocation,  
etc).

        as i recall, there is already precident for the length of 
        "temporary" delegations.  Back in the previous century, the IANA
        tended to treat "temporary" delegations for experimental purposes
        to a 12 month window.   

        Five years is effectively permanent. 

        that said, i'm happy w/ the rest of the document.
