Thanks for the changes! -07 seems to address my comments.

Just a minor editorial comment:

2.1.  Discovery of Points of Attachment

   "The 802.11 Beacon is sent only at a rate within the basic rate set,
   which typically consists of the lowest supported rate, or perhaps the
   lowest supported rate."

- "consists of the lowest supported rate_s_"?
  "perhaps _only_ the lowest"?
  (without at least the first change this sentence looks somewhat odd)


And a small technical (but not really asking for any changes):

   "of 37.9 percent.  The calculation can be verified as follows:"

- the calculations for 37.9% channel utilization are quite detailed
  for an IETF draft, but then again, at least the claimed case is now
  much clearer to verify
- "virtual APs" could likely do some optimizations to avoid most of the
  DIFS waits, so the percentage would likely be a bit smaller, but
  anyway, there's already enough details here and I do not really want
  to suggest adding more ;-)
