Please note that RFC 6090 already has a bunch of errata; see <http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?rfc=6090>. Maybe Watson and Tanja can coordinate on a concise statement of the current error and turn in a new errata. It would also be grand if people on the list went through the RFC with a finer-tooth comb than they did before it was published and report anything else.

There are enough errata that it feels like the RFC should be updated to deal with them all.
