DISCUSS:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

(A simple editorial fix) Per Section 5.8.2 of [I-D.ietf-ace-oauth-authz], the
name of the parameter in the C-to-AS communication is “ace_profile” (not
“profile”).  The “ace_profile” parameter is mistakenly referenced as “profile”
in the following place:

(a) Section 3.2.
   The AS can signal that the use of OSCORE is REQUIRED for a specific
   access token by including the "profile" parameter with the value
   "coap_oscore" in the access token response

Thank you to Kathleen Moriarty for the SECDIR review.

** In addition to the normative text noted in the DISCUSS, the examples in
Figure 4 and Figure 7 also have the same typo (but that doesn’t rise to a
DISCUSS)

** Section 7.  Per “Developers should avoid using multiple access tokens for a
same client”, is there a reason not to use a normative SHOULD here?  The DTLS
profile has nearly the identical words and uses a normative SHOULD?

Likewise should “This profile recommends that the that RS maintains a single
access token for each client” be “This profile RECOMMENDS”?
