Document:draft-moskowitz-ipsecme-ipseckey-eddsa-06

Summary: Ready with nits. It will be nice to explain why these IANA Registry additions for EdDSA Public Keys to the IPSECKEY not done with RFC 8080 which defined it in Feb. 2017.

8080 is for DNSSEC.  OK.  But this is for other uses.  Now those that use the IPSECKEY RR are ready to use EdDSA, so could of, would of, should of.  It was not done, now it is.  RFC numbers are relatively cheap.  Explain what?  That 8080 was only for DNSSEC RR and this is for IPSECKEY RR?  Why?  Leave it alone.



Major issues:
None

Minor issues:
None

Nits/editorial comments:
Appendix A
please add an IPv6 example. RFC 4025 does have some.

Yes, 4025 defines all the gateway use cases, so has gateway RR examples with only ONE public key format.

This draft is to add EdDSA as a public key format and gives the example of what that key looks like in the IPSECKEY RR.  Any reader that wants the gateway use case will use 4025 for those examples.  I do not see where cluttering up this document with use cases already covered in 4025 adds value/clarity.

So I respectfully state that I prefer to leave all the gateway examples out of this document.

Bob
