Hi,

This new revision addresses two IESG DISCUSSes.

The first, from Sam Hartman, gives rise to a new paragraph (the first 
paragraph in section 8) to point out certain security concerns with RSVP-TE.

The second, from Russ Housley, introduces the GenArt review by Eric Gray and 
gives rise to a good number of editorial changes. Nearly all of these are of 
no technical substance comprising the addition of text for clarification 
(especially where the old text said "SHOULD" and there was no description of 
why or how an implementation might vary from the SHOULD). In section 3.1 
there is, however, a set of changes that, while they don't change the intent 
of the authors, do make practical changes to the interpretation of the 
protocol procedures - essentially, we have changed some of the RFC 2119 
language.

In my opinion, these changes don't warrant a further working group last 
call, although I would encourage interested parties to read carefully. 
However, on this I-D I need to recuse myself from the decision process and 
hand over to Deborah.

Thanks,
Adrian
