[Acme] Re: [Technical Errata Reported] RFC8555 (9050)

[Aaron Gable <[e-mail]>]

I believe this erratum should be rejected for two reasons:
1. It is improperly formatted, fully replacing the bullet for the newOrder
resource instead of merely inserting a new bullet; and
2. The newAuthz resource is optional. ACME does not necessarily have that
resource, so it makes sense to leave it out of the list defining what ACME
is at a high level.
