Hello, This new version of our draft has many improvements raised by IESG member reviews.
Highlights: - JWS algorithm requirements tightened: mirror clients MUST implement ES256. Servers MAY use other digital signature algorithms but MUST NOT use "none", MAC algorithms, or Deprecated/Prohibited algorithms. This gives clear interoperability guidance while leaving room for future algorithms such as PQC. - Delta retention safety rule: mirror servers MUST NOT remove references to Delta Files with a version higher than the current Snapshot File version, preventing a rare (but recoverable) race condition. - Error Recovery section: new section consolidating retry and recovery guidance with bounded exponential backoff, snapshot fallback, and operator alerting. - Clarifications around hashes/signatures, snapshot generation rules, history rewriting, GZIP decompression risk, Cache-Control headers, various terminology items.
