Document:   draft-ietf-pals-mpls-tp-pw-over-bidir-lsp-08   Reviewer: Roni Even Review Date:2016–6-30 IETF LC End Date: 2016–7-4 IESG Telechat date: 2016-7-7   Summary: This draft is ready for publication as standard track  RFC.     Major issues:   Minor issues: 1.   In section 2.1 “ C (Co-routed path) bit: This informs the remote T-PE/S-PEs about the properties of the underlying LSPs.  When set, the remote T-PE/S-PEs need to select co-routed LSP (as the forwarding tunnel) as the reverse PSN tunnel.  If there is no such tunnel available, it may trigger the remote T-PE/S-PEs to establish a new LSP.” Why are you using non normative language here “need to” instead of MUST or SHOULD while for the S bit normative language is used?     Nits/editorial comments: In the abstract “TE” is not expanded, only later in the document
