Dear all,

As always, many thanks to the RFC Editor team for their great work and all 
their help! We have now come to agreement about the first three questions in 
this email. Please find our answers below:

[TAPS Authors] All of these changes are fine with us.

[TAPS Authors] Please use multistream (with no dash).

The style should stay as it is (<tt> in draft-ietf-taps-interface, quoted in 
draft-ietf-taps-impl), but there is a different mistake here: the text in 
draft-ietf-taps-interface should refer to the name of the property, not the 
name of the section. So, please apply the following replacement in 
draft-ietf-taps-interface:

OLD:
As an alternative to specifying an interface name for the Local Endpoint, an 
application can express more fine-grained preferences using the Interface 
Instance or Type Selection Property; see Section 6.2.11.

NEW:
As an alternative to specifying an interface name for the Local Endpoint, an 
application can express more fine-grained preferences using the interface 
Selection Property; see Section 6.2.11.

… where, in the new version, the second occurrence of “interface” should be 
enclosed in <tt>. Here it is again with the <tt> inserted at the right place:

NEW:
As an alternative to specifying an interface name for the Local Endpoint, an 
application can express more fine-grained preferences using the 
<tt>interface</tt> Selection Property; see Section 6.2.11.


Due to your suggestion to take care of item 4) after other updates, we will get 
back to you on 4) and 5) below later.


Best regards,
The authors of the TAPS Cluster (508)
