I am the assigned Gen-ART reviewer for this draft. For background on Gen-ART, please see the FAQ at Document:                                    draft-ietf-netmod-opstate-reqs-04 Reviewer:                                     Christer Holmberg Review Date:                               17 March 2016 IETF LC End Date:                        16 February 2016 IETF Telechat Date:                    N/A Summary:                                     The document is almost ready for publication, but I have a couple of editorial comments that I’d like to authors to address. Major Issues: None Minor Issues: None Editorial Issues: Q1: The Abstract and Introduction begins with the following statement: "This document primarily regards the difference between the intended configuration and the applied configuration of a device and how intended and applied configuration relate to the operational state of a device.” I think you need to have some introductory text before that, which describes e.g. what kind of “device” you are talking about. Q2: Section 3 contains requirements. However, in many cases it is unclear whether they apply to “clients”, “servers”, or to something else.
