Ok - done: IANA section added.

Yes.
Your comment raised a number of issues I have corrected in the ID:
5.a. 	section 3.6 on Secure Software Download updated:
      The issue was that this section claimed that the
docsDevSoftwareGroupV2 group was defined in the IETF BPI+ (this is
wrong). The section now says:
... the MTA MIB and the S-MTA compliance modules also rely on two MIB
object groups:
   - docsBpi2CodeDownloadGroup defined in the IETF BPI Plus MIB module
(DOCS-IETF-BPI2-MIB [RFCyyyy]), and,
   - docsDevSoftwareGroupV2 defined in the IETF Cable Devicev2 MIB
module (DOCS-CABLE-DEVICE-MIB [RFCyyy]).      

5.b.  added DOCS-CABLE-DEVICE-MIB as a normative reference

Ok - done: good catch, fixed.

Ok - done: passWithWarnings (plural).

Ok - done: good catch, changed the enum to failureOtherReason.

It is already referenced in the informative ref section.
