The following errata report has been submitted for RFC9448,
"TNAuthList Profile of Automated Certificate Management Environment (ACME) Authority Token"

--------------------------------------
You may review the report below and at:
https://errata.rfc-editor.org/eid9173/

--------------------------------------
Type: Technical
Reported by: Chris Wendt <chris@appliedbits.com>

Section 7 says:

Original Text
-------------
"identifiers": [
"type":"TNAuthList",
"value":"F83n2a...avn27DN3"
],

Corrected Text
--------------
"identifiers": [
{"type":"TNAuthList",
"value":"F83n2a...avn27DN3"}
],

Notes
-----
The "identifiers" member is a JSON array, but its contents are written as a
sequence of bare name/value pairs, which is not valid JSON. Per RFC 8555,
each ACME identifier is a JSON object, so the array must contain an object:
[{"type":"TNAuthList","value":"..."}]. This matches the form used correctly
elsewhere in the document (e.g., the new-order request examples). The example
is informative, but as printed it cannot be parsed as JSON.

Instructions:
-------------
This erratum is currently posted as "Reported". Please
use "Reply All" to discuss whether it should be verified or
rejected. When a decision is reached, the verifying party
will log in to change the status and edit the report, if necessary.
