Re: [scim] [Technical Errata Reported] RFC7643 (6011)

However, the correction needs a correction.  The display attribute is “immutable” not “readOnly”.

         {
           "name": "display",
           "type": "string",
           "multiValued": false,
           "description": "A human-readable name for the group member, primarily used for display purposes.",
           "required": false,
           "caseExact": false,
           "mutability": "readOnly”,
—>. should be: 
           "mutability": “immutable”,

           "returned": "default",
           "uniqueness": "none"
         }
