WG, Sorry for not meeting my promise to ensure this was available before the end of November. The editing and reviewing to get the two documents consistent took a bit longer than expected.
These updates represent some major changes due to the restructuring into an applicability statement. This makes the Diff very unsuitable for a review. So I do hope that a number of the WG members can review both the documents. We need confirmation that we havne't screwed up something or changed the document beyond what there be consensus for. I will note that when making this into a AS we have generalized the limitations to not be as tunnel specific as they where. So this definitely needs review. They have also been split into clearer sender, and receiver node requirements as well as usage requirements. I will also remind you that these document will need to go through a new IETF last call due to the intended status change. I believe the intention is to do this jointly with the WG last call.
