The following errata report has been submitted for RFC6749,
"The OAuth 2.0 Authorization Framework".

--------------------------------------
You may review the report below and at:
https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid6614

--------------------------------------
Type: Editorial
Reported by: Daniel Barclay <danielbarclay.oss@gmail.com>

Section: 5.1

Original Text
-------------
... adding the following parameters to the entity-body of the HTTP response ...

Corrected Text
--------------
... adding the following parameters as members to the JSON object in the entity-body of the HTTP response ...

Notes
-----
Saying "adding the following parameters to the entity-body" seems to be confusing, 
implying that HTTP entity bodies have parameters (at the level of semantics defined by HTTP), which they don't.

The corrected text doesn't necessarily need to be what I proposed in the "Corrected Text" field, but it should probably at least refer to the data or (JSON) object inside the entity body instead of just referring to the entity body.

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