Summary:
 Sorry for the late review. The document introduces a method for clients to make concurrent pulls of the incremental updates potentially through different HTTP connections.


Major issues:
Section 8.1 states:
"it introduces additional complexities when the ALTO server is being load balanced", 

Q: does it mean there is only one single ALTO server load balancing among multiple pull requests from the same client? or Load balancing among pull requests from multiple clients? 

I would assume different clients request different incremental updates. Does it mean that the ALTO server has to manage states for all the clients? 



Minor issues:

Nits/editorial comments:

Thank you,
