Thanks Yaron - I will capture this as part of the text on packet handling
and field validation.

Thanks, 
- Ken

>> All,

>>
>> #84: Wesp scope and applicability to encrypted data. Agreed that we will
>> use Next Header value of zero to denote packet payload is encrypted.
>> Should be closed?
>>
>> #85: units for header / trailer len. Updated in rev 02 - Gabriel is owner
>> and needs to update / close ticket.
>>
>> #88: UDP encap diagram is wrong - fixed in rev 02. Additionally, Yaron's
>> comment on updating reference to 4306 from 3947 - will address in next
>> rev.
>>
>> #89:  Version handling - added some text, but need to add additional text
>> on how this is treated by intermediate devices, as well as recipients -
>> see discussion on ML.
>>
>> #90: Shorter WESP negotiation using notifications - added this to rev02 -
>> all agree that this is the right approach?
>>
>> #91: Next Header field should not be optional for ESP-NULL. Added text to
>> rev 02.
>>
>> #92: Clarify how to treat the flags. This is similar to #89 and will
>> clarify further in next rev.
>>
>> #93: Next header to provide value of tunneled packet. Some comments on ML
>> indicate that Next Header value in WESP should be same as Next Header
>> value in ESP trailer. This provides consistency and aids easy validation
>> by recipient - need to add text to indicate consistency between tunnel /
>> transport mode.
>>
>> #104: Handling malformed fields in WESP header. This is similar to Next
>> header corruption and will add text to ensure recipient validates these
>as
>> per suggestions on ML.
>>
>> Side issue: Between rev-01 and rev-02, moved WESP flags to beginning of
>> WESP header. Rationale was to place flags first, so any packet format
>> changes in the future can be accommodated by checking the flags and then
>> inferring the subsequent formatting. Offline comment prefers the flags to
>> be at end of WESP header, as per rev-01 of draft. Any preference from
>> others? Raise a separate ticket for this?
