Two more things:
- Alper's email address needs to be updated, as the one in the draft
        does not work.
- idnits 2.04.08 complains that there's no Intended Status on the       
        first page.

Thanks,

> Comments:
> This draft has changed significantly since it's -06 version that
> I previously reviewed for Gen-ART.  Sections 5-10 of the -06 draft
> have been removed, resulting in a considerably higher level -08
> document that is appropriate to publish as Informational (my
> previous review of -06 had expressed a concern about whether it
> should be standards track instead of informational).  Much of
> my previous Gen-ART review concerned portions of the -06 draft

ework-06-black.txt
> 
> The following points from that review of -06 has not been addressed:
> 
>   Section 3 could use a discussion about the relationship of the
>   access network to the network that PANA controls access to.
>   Figure 1 ought to show the latter (accessed) network as connected
>   to the EP, and a two-cloud ASCII diagram would be very useful.
>   Among other things, this would make it clear that the access
>   network is in general a shared access network
> 
>   Section 4 talks about authentication at two levels - the lower
>   level (link native or IPsec) and EAP over PANA.  It needs to
>   describe the recommended or required relationships between the
>   identities used for these authentications.  If there is no
>   relationship, there is a potential vulnerability (particularly
>   in the IPsec scenario) to a man-in-the-middle attack where the
>   secure channel ends are not at the PaC and EP.
> 
> The latter concern needs to be noted in the Security Considerations
> section, even if it is addressed elsewhere - the solution need
> not be in this draft, but the identity correspondence problem
> is an aspect of the PANA framework and needs to be noted as a
> security consideration.
