I just skimmed the docs, looks like a fair amount of work has gone
into them.

What I was wondering is how, if at all, this relates to the other
security work going on for IP and IPng in general?

It already looks like I'm going to have to ride a general IP security
horse at the same time I ride a distinctly different SNMPv2 security
horse.  I'm not sure I'll be happy trying to simultaneously ride a third
security horse.

Please don't take this as a negative statement on your work, just a
concern.
