Hi Mike,

Thanks for the in-depth review. 
I realized when I read your review that I hadn't provided you with the
background info on the document.
I apologize for not doing so before you did the review.

Are there any further WG comments on these issues before I submit them
to the ADs for consideration as part of the AD review?
