Reviewed by Elwyn Davies, Gen-ART
His review:

This document appears to be ready for Proposed Standard.

One trivial nit:
In the introduction add (as new second para): The term 'Explicit NULL'
is used in this document to mean 'either IPv4 Explicit NULL or IPv6
Explicit NULL'.

[Ballot discuss]
Two security reviewers failed to be able to understand what this
document actually does.  In particular it fails to define what an
explicit null is used for in an MPLS stack and what the semantics of
an explicit null in the middle of a stack would be.  The document does
helpfully state these semantics are obvious.

Both reviewers believed a paragraph describing what an explicit null
is used for and what it would mean to find one in the middle of an
MPLS stack would improve the readability of the document
significantly.  I concur.
