The following errata report has been rejected for RFC8040,
"RESTCONF Protocol".

--------------------------------------
You may review the report below and at:
https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid5761

--------------------------------------
Status: Rejected
Type: Technical

Reported by: Qin WU <bill.wu@huawei.com>
Date Reported: 2019-06-24
Rejected by: Ignas Bagdonas (IESG)

Section: 4.4.1

Original Text
-------------
If the data resource already exists, then the POST request MUST fail
and a "409 Conflict" status-line MUST be returned.  The error-tag
value "resource-denied" is used in this case

Corrected Text
--------------
If the data resource already exists, then the POST request MUST fail
and a "409 Conflict" status-line MUST be returned.  The error-tag 
value "data-exists" is used in this case

Notes
-----
The error-tag value should be corrected as "data-exists" in this case 
based on the context. According to error-tag definition in RFC6241:

   error-tag:      resource-denied
   error-type:     transport, rpc, protocol, application
   error-severity: error
   error-info:     none
   Description:    Request could not be completed because of
                   insufficient resources.

It is apparent error-tag value "data-exists" should be corresponding 
to the data resource already exists condition.
 --VERIFIER NOTES-- 
   Rejected based on the discussion on WG mailing list: https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/netconf/LNYNKiK7RYhTeita4oCte0HVcLA
