Comments on ASAP

Each transport protocol to be used by Pool
   Elements (PE) and Pool Users (PU) MUST have an accompanying
   transports mapping document.

This statement is unclear.  I think it should say each transport
protocol other than SCTP MUST have an accompanying transport mapping
document.

1.2.  Organization of this document

   Section 2 details ASAP message formats.  In Section 3 we give the
   detailed ASAP procedures for the ASAP implementer.  And in Section 4
   we give the details of the ASAP interface, focusing on the
   communication primitives between the applications above ASAP and ASAP
   itself, and the communications primitives between ASAP and SCTP (or
other transport layer).  Also included in this discussion is relevant
timers and configurable parameters as appropriate.  Section 5
   provides threshold and protocol variables.

   building a mechanism to share state but ASAP in itself will NOT share
   any state.
