thanks, you're nits are included in version 24 as well as your other 
comments below.

now it says:

It SHOULD wait for all of them to respond for a configurable time, by 
default two minutes, and then continue with the handover procedure...

yes, the Data Relay is the root of the problem. Fixed.

The hosts will anyway send their local locators and server reflexive 
ones, and only the relayed one must be omitted. So, this means that no 
connectivity if NAT traversal fails. Remember that this is just a back 
up plan which the data relay client executes only when it fails to 
register for a new relayed candidate *and* the SPI would conflict. In 
other words, a data relay client MAY reuse server relayed candidates 
only if SPI does not conflict.

(I did not correct anything related to this, let me know explicitly if 
you would like to see some changes)
