Re: [OAUTH-WG] Error Registry: Conclusion

Hi Mike, 

thanks for raising this issue. 

I am fine with the currently proposed approach. I just had a personal preference for separate tables for readability purposes -- not a big issue. 

Ciao

Hence, we need add another one to this list (suggestion: 'resource access error response'). In fact, I would prefer IANA to create separate tables for each of these sub-registries to avoid confusion for the reader (instead of putting everything into a single table).
