Thank you Ludwig and Cigdem,

I would effectively prefer to have one reference, i.e ace-oauth-authz. I
also reviewed the text from ace-oauth-authz and it seems fine. I also guess
the text from Cigdem is better, however, ace-oauth-authz provides
exceptions for CBOR and CoAP.

OLD
"As described in [ace-oauth-authz] the error responses for JSON-based
interactions with AS follow RFC6749. When CBOR is used, the interactions
MUST implement [ace-oauth-authz]"

NEW
"As described in [ace-oauth-authz] the error responses for HTTP/JSON-based
interactions with AS follow RFC6749. When CBOR or CoAP is used, the
interactions MUST implement [ace-oauth-authz]"

Yours,
Daniel
