Summary: Ready with some minor nits.  I am not sufficiently involved in
(secure) DNS to validate the technical proposal, but the draft is clear and
makes good sense to me,  Sorrry the review is a little late... Christmas caught
up with me!

I am unsure whether the updates for RFC 4035 in Section 6.2 imply that there is
an erratum applying to RFC 4035: The added text is
    .....This concern only
      applies to implementations of DNSSEC that employ pre-computed
      signatures.  There is an exception to this rule for online signing
      implementations of DNSSEC (e.g Minimally Covering NSEC, and
      Compact Denial of Existence (RFC TBD), where dynamically generated
      NSEC records can be produced for owner names that don't exist or
      are empty non-terminals.

This update appears to apply retrospectively to the approved version of RFC
4035 as well as if the current RFC is approved.  I haven't checked if this is
already covered by an erratum.

Major issues: None

Minor issues: None

Nits/editorial comments:
Globally: s/e.g. /e.g., / and s/i.e. /i.e., /

s1, para 1: It might be worth pointing explicitly to RFC 4470 when epsilon
functions are mentioned (OK, RFC 4470 is mentioned on the previous line but for
those not in the know...)

s1, end of para 1: s/at the name/for the name/ possibly.

s7: This section should be marked for removal by the RFC Editor on publication
as it is not future proof.

s10:  This section should be redrafted to remove the distinction between done
and to be done items.  The notes about what has been pre-allocated should be in
an RFC editor note to be removed on publication.
