Document:  (Proposed RFC 6478) (was draft-ietf-pwe3-static-pw-status-10)
Reviewer: Ben Campbell
Review Date:  2012-04-26
IETF LC End Date:  2012-04-30

**** Note: This draft has previously been approved as RFC 6478, but I 
understand we are last calling it again due to some material changes in AUTH48. 
Therefore this is a review of the diff between revision 10 and the text at 
http://www.rfc-editor.org/authors/rfc6478.txt ****


Summary:

The edited text is essentially ready for publication, but I have a couple of 
minor issues that might should be considered first.

Major issues:

None

Minor issues:

-- 5.3, last paragraph:

The last sentence changed from a non-normative statement to "This SHOULD cause the 
PE sending the PW status notification message with a PW status code equal to zero to stop 
sending and to continue normal operation."

Is that really intended as a normative statement, or a statement of fact? I suspect it's 
the latter, but if the former, then it should be stated more of the form "If the 
sending PE receives ... it SHOULD stop ..."

-- IANA considerations:

Maybe I missed it, but I don't see a registration policy for adding things to 
the new registry. This wasn't an AUTH48 change, but it should probably be there.
Hi Ben

Thank you for your review.

The IANA policy is stated as IETF Review (end of first para in IANA)

The normative text is deliberate - this was part of the change that we needed to make.
