Pascal,

Thank you for your replies.

Re: #16 (Section 6)

OK; have updated to match RFC 9685. (Side note: In this paragraph, one 
remaining difference from 9685 -- besides of course "addresses" vs. "prefix" -- 
is that this document does not use "MUST" in the first sentence. We assume that 
is intentional unless you let us know otherwise.)

Current:
   The RPL router that merges multiple advertisements for the same
   prefix uses and advertises the longest remaining lifetime across all
   the origins of the advertisements for that prefix.  When the lifetime
   expires, the router sends a no-path DAO message (i.e., the lifetime
   is 0) using the same value for the ROVR value as for the previous
   advertisements.  This value refers to either the single descendant
   that advertised the Target if there is only one or the router itself
   if there is more than one.

vs. RFC 9685:
   The RPL router that merges multiple advertisements for the same
   anycast or multicast addresses MUST use and advertise the longest
   remaining lifetime across all the origins of the advertisements for
   that address.  When the lifetime expires, the router sends a no-path
   DAO message (i.e., the lifetime is 0) using the same value for the
   ROVR value as for the previous advertisements.  This value refers to
   either the single descendant that advertised the Target if there is
   only one or the router itself if there is more than one.

Sent it along earlier today. We will wait to hear from you again 
and from Éric before continuing the publication process. This page
