As a MANET WG participant who has read and reviewed this draft, I support adoption.

I found a few nits in addition to the ones already flagged by Donald Eastlake:

- Already communicated to the author directly: Informative reference RFC 6779 was obsoleted by RFC 7939

- Spelling consistency: Two instances of "behaviour(s)" (section 1, section 7) versus many of "behavior"; two instances of "neighbour(s)" (section A.3, first paragraph) versus many of "neighbor";
One instance of "signalled" (section A.3, third paragraph), which, if American spelling is adopted, should be "signaled".

- A sentence fragment in Appendix A, intro does not read well: “as while is expected that while”. Suggest “as while it is expected that”

- In section A.1, second paragraph, first sentence,  I would suggest replacing "single messages" by "non-periodic messages" or "event-driven messages".

Thanks,
Ronald

>    This specification describes an optional Topology Control (TC)
>    message that can be sent by an OLSRv2 router.  This is permitted, but
>    not suggested, by the existing protocol, but is here recommended for
>    use in some networks.  The original motivation for this message came

>    extreme case updated only by messages responding to the arrival and
>    departure of routers, in which case the additional TC message is not
>    just recommended but required.  However, the additional message could
>    be useful in reducing the routing convergence time in any network in
>    which messages are sent at lengthy intervals.
> 
>    This specification updates RFC 7181 "The Optimized Link State Routing
>    Protocol version 2 (OLSRv2)".
