Martin, Sebastian,
I suggest you get to the editorial comments from Mirja sometime soon, so
we that a new version is published by the time this goes into the IESG
call in December.

Hi authors, hi shepherd,
thanks for the well-written document and write-up! I've reviewed the draft and
would be ready to start IETF last call any time. However, I will not be able to
join the next telechat on Nov 21 and therefore this doc has to wait for final
approval for Dec 6 anyway. That means we have plenty of time to start IETF last
call and I would prefer to start it after the meeting week! Let me know if
there are any concerns about this time line!
While I think the document is ready, I of course still have a couple comments
after my review. See below for my comments which are mostly editorial. Feel
free to address them or not and update the doc before or after IETF last call
accordingly. Just let me know what your plans are!
Thanks!
Mirja

Review Comments:
1) There are a few abbreviations that are not spelled out at first occurrence
(but later instead). Can you double-check this…?
(You can also check with the RFC Editor Abbreviations List:
https://www.rfc-editor.org/materials/abbrev.expansion.txt )
2) This part seems to be twice in the doc
sec 2: "For the remainder of the document, we use the notation:
IRD_URIS_X = XDOMDISC(X,"ALTO:https“)“
sec 3: "For the remainder of the document, we use the following notation for
calling the ALTO Cross-Domain Server Discovery Procedure:
IRD_URIS_X = XDOMDISC(X,"ALTO:https“)“
I guess you can just remove it in sec 2.
3) sec 3: "These error
conditions have to be reported to the caller in an appropriate way.“
Would you be able to say more here?
4) sec 3.4: "If no IRD URI could be
found after looking up all domain names from the 3rd and 4th column,
the procedure terminates unsuccessfully, without producing a result.“
What does this mean for the caller? Or should an empty result rather be
returned?
5) section 4: in 4.3 and 4.4 the step to call the ALTO Cross-Domain Server
Discovery Procedure and then query the IRD(s) are listed as explicit step while
in section 4.1. and 4.2 the same (?) steps are described in text. The way this
is represented is a bit confusing. Also given these two first steps are always
the same, is it really necessary to describe them separately in each
subsection? To be honest, the way it is currently presented I’m a bit confused
where the differences are…
6) Appendix A and B: Thanks for moving this part in the appendix. It is
absolutely appropriate to have any such information in the appendix. However,
please reconsider before final publication if all of this information actually
has an achievable value or if some maybe can be removed before final
publication. Also for appendix A please consider renaming it.
7) In appendix maybe replace "sk@labpc12“ with something more neutral e.g.
„user1“…
