Referring to the errata updating the reference: I think that at the time that RFC 3107 was published the reference to 2283 was wrong both because 2283 had already been updated, and because there is no actual reference to 2283 in the references section. The errata is therefore correct. The problem that I have with "hold for document update" is that by now, and therefore by the time (if any) that we update 3107, the errata will also be out of date. 

My inclination is to think that at the time that 3107 was published the errata was correct, and thus we should accept it.

I take this to mean "Accept - hold for a potential 3107bis", right?
