Summary: This draft is ready for publication as an informational RFC

Note: This review is primarily a followup to the Gen-ART review by Roni Evans
during IETF last call.

Major Issues:

None

Minor Issues:

Roni had questions about the mention of TCP in section 5 and in 6.1, while
BTTM is otherwise stated to run over UDP. After reading the updated draft and
the related email thread, along with the change to the SRV record discussion
to remove the mention of "_tcp", I think it is now reasonably clear that BTTM
uses IPSec and UDP tunneling to carry TCP connections between applications.

What's less clear to me if the mentions of TCP are intended to give TCP
between applications any special precedence, or are other transports (i.e.
UDP, etc) allowed over the tunnel. I assume that any IP based transport
protocol could be used, couldn't it?

Given that this is an informational track draft describing an existing
commercial service, I don't think this necessarily needs to block publication.
But if the draft is updated for other reasons prior to publication, it might
be helpful to clarify that any transport can be carried, or explain why it
cannot.
