So this doesn't get lost, here comments I sent to the authors before starting
IETF last call...

Dan will probably want to update his coordinates.

You don't need to be so enthusiastic with your acronyms in Section 1.2
The following are "well known" according to
http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc-style-guide/abbrev.expansion.txt

  GMPLS   Generalized MPLS
  LDP     Label Distribution Protocol
  MPLS    Multiprotocol Label Switching

There is a serial comma missing from
   OAM     Operations, Administration and Maintenance
The comma is also missing in your text.

In Section 1.3 you say

  There is no definition for MPLS TE-LSP support of multipoint-to-
  multipoint connectivity and none is anticipated.

Without opening up a discussion of whether what you cay is true, can you
say why it is relevant? Perhaps "This document is limited to a 
discussion of point-to-multipoint function and does not discuss 
multipoint-to-multipoint support." You might also move this to Section
1.1.

Framework for Point-to-Multipoint MPLS in Transport Networks) to Informational
RFC


The IESG has received a request from the Multiprotocol Label Switching WG
(mpls) to consider the following document:
- 'A Framework for Point-to-Multipoint MPLS in Transport Networks'
  <draft-ietf-mpls-tp-p2mp-framework-05.txt> as Informational RFC

The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits
final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the
ietf(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org mailing lists by 2014-01-16. Exceptionally, comments 
may be
sent to iesg(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org instead. In either case, please retain the
beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.

Abstract

   The Multiprotocol Label Switching Transport Profile is the common set
   of MPLS protocol functions defined to enable the construction and
   operation of packet transport networks.  The MPLS-TP supports both
   point-to-point and point-to-multipoint transport paths.  This
   document defines the elements and functions of the MPLS-TP
   architecture applicable specifically to supporting point-to-
   multipoint transport paths.

IESG discussion can be tracked via

No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
