All that is great. Why is Qian Sun still listed on the front page as an author. Wouldn't it be more appropriate to move the name to the Acknowledgements section where the text could read... Some of the text of this document was provided by Qian Sun who violated IETF IPR process by not disclosing related IPR that he had also authored and so is not listed as a named author of this document.
