I have re-read the document and this version looks good to me. Two
comments below.
1)
I believe the document should contain a pointer to SCRAM, RFC 5802.
Then readers will understand that they are supposed to be implementing
SCRAM instead of DIGEST-MD5. I suggest adding at the end of section 1:
The SCRAM mechanism [RFC 5802] has been developed to provide similar
features as DIGEST-MD5 but with a better design.
2)
In section 1, I would add the following bullet under 8:
C. The DES cipher for the security layer is considered insecure
due to its small key space.
