Dear Authors/Chairs/ADs (cc: ace WG),

Please see below for comments from an expert for the Interface Description 
(if=) Link Target Attribute Values registration.

Please note that we will also need a response by the authors to pending IANA 
questions by tomorrow; otherwise, we will have to mark this as "IANA NOT OK."

Best regards,

David Dong
IANA Services Sr. Specialist
