Reviewer: Carlos Jesús Bernardos
Review result: Ready with Nits

I am an assigned INT directorate reviewer for draft-ietf-ippm-encrypted-pdmv2.
These comments were written primarily for the benefit of the Internet Area
Directors. Document editors and shepherd(s) should treat these comments just
like they would treat comments from any other IETF contributors and resolve
them along with any other Last Call comments that have been received. For more
details on the INT Directorate, see

Note that this is a very quick review.

Based on my review, if I was on the IESG I would ballot this document as NO
OBJECTION.

The following are other issues I found with this document that SHOULD be
corrected before publication:

- Since the document indicates that implementations SHOULD support PDM,
unencrypted PDMv2 and encrypted PDMv2, should this spect obsolete/deprecate RFC
8250?

- Related to the former, sections 5.2.1 and 5.2.2 describe use cases where a
server does not understand PDM or PDMv2, but the previous paragraph indicates
that implementations SHOULD support all. Maybe some clarification would be
helpful.

- Section 6.1: how can we guarantee at protocol specification that PDM data is
kept confidential between the intended parties? Not sure this can be specified.

The following are minor issues (typos, misspelling, minor text improvements)
with the document:

- The use of acronyms should be harmonized. For example, in the packet format
of the unencrypted PDMv2 header, some terms are used as acronyms (e.g.,
ScaleDTLR), but others not (e.g., Delta Time Last Received). Also the
capitalization is different as what was used in previous sections.
