The document itself looks good to me.  The one thing I'd mention here
is that (longer term) you should be tracking what's going on with the
kmart BOF and any resulting changes to routing protocol
authentication.

and eventually the tcpm work that parallels this:

I don't know how this is all going to turn out.  I now think that
having a new TCP option to "fix" the problems in the existing MD5
option is a rather silly thing to do (based on the deployment
requirements I saw at that BOF), but this is all stuff that'll be
driven by the marketplace.
