IESG review of: draft-ietf-gsmp-reqs-06.txt

The IESG yesterday discussed this documment.
With the following RFC-Editor note the document can be
approved. Before we send out that approval, we'd like
to give GSMP WG a chance to review and let us know if
this is OK. 

Pls check if I did correctly expand DCN

RFC-Editor notes:

1) Third paragraph of section 2.5 - expand DCN.
   OLD:
     used in legacy DCN environments that use OSI CLNP.
   NEW:
     used in legacy Data Communication Network (DCN) environments
     that use OSI CLNP.

2) For section 2.5 -  Add a final paragraph:

   The security risks of additional non-IP encapsulations MUST be
   described, since the mandatory to implement mechanism of IPsec
   is not available for these control channels, as in the RFC 3293
   Ethernet and ATM cases.  It is in scope to perform risk analysis
   and describe if mechanisms for link-level security mitigate the
   risk.


3) reword text in section 3.3

   OLD:
     A retransmission policy should be used if no reply is 
     received for a  message with "AckAll" set.
   NEW:
     A retransmission policy with a well-designed exponential
     backoff should be used if no reply is received for a
     message with "AckAll" set.
