Hi Adam, Jim, Adam, thank you for your reply. We have updated the document as described below and posted the files here: https://www.rfc-editor.org/authors/rfc9886.xml https://www.rfc-editor.org/authors/rfc9886.txt https://www.rfc-editor.org/authors/rfc9886.pdf https://www.rfc-editor.org/authors/rfc9886.html
