[Med] The revision date will be updated with the publication date of the (future) RFC. The RFC editor is used with that.

[Med] OK.

[Med] Fixed.

[Med] This is already covered by the "reference" clause.

[Med] That is on purpose because otherwise that reference will need to be called out in the core text.

[Med] I will leave the initial wording.

[Med] Good catch. Thanks.

[Med] We used to have this one as normative but we received comments asking to move it informative. I will leave this one to the AD.

[Med] I went for: s/tunnelType Definitions/ifType definitions: tunnelType
