Thanks for your comments Kiran. I will submit -08 on Saturday. See my responses 
inline to your comments.

Done.

There is no emphasis on them. They are independent designs and the authors of 
all the documents, including this one agreed to have a consistent format for 
ease of implementations.

I updated the URL. Good catch.

I used "Radius" when referring to Geo-Prefixes and referencing it in the packet 
format. I use it lower case to refer to the general term "radius".

Done.

The opening paragraph states the deprecation but I'll make it more clear and 
not the new name for the new LCAF type.

Its there to allow expansion of the bit fields that precede it. I added text to 
reflect that.

Changed.

Thanks again,
