Hi John,

Per my reply to Murray, the IANA registration procedure language was updated in 
https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf-oauth-resource-metadata-12.html as 
discussed on today's IESG telechat and per Deb's suggestions to me.  It now 
says:

"The IANA escalation process is followed when the Designated Experts are not 
responsive within 14 days."

Thanks again for taking the time to review.

                                -- Mike

COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks for the well-written document. I have a couple of comments -

- Section 1 "This use of WWW-Authenticate can indicate that the protected 
resource metadata MAY have changed." That's a misuse of the RFC 2119 MAY. You 
aren't specifying procedure here, so you should be using lowercase "may". This 
recurs in Section 5.2, "its metadata MAY have changed".

Mike> Thanks.  Aaron created 
https://github.com/oauth-wg/draft-ietf-oauth-resource-metadata/pull/60 to 
address this comment.  We'll plan to merge it and publish before the telechat.

- In Section 8, you say the registration policy is Specification Required, but 
then you go on to say "However, to allow for the allocation of values prior to 
publication, the Designated Experts may approve registration once they are 
satisfied that such a specification will be published." As far as I can tell, 
that is not compatible with the plain language of the policy called 
"Specification Required" as described in RFC 8126. I also wonder how the 
experts could possibly do a proper review if all they have to look at is an IOU 
for a specification.

Mike> This is standard language in OAuth specs.  Without trying to be 
comprehensive, it occurs in at these places:
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6749.html#section-11.1
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7519.html#section-10.1
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7591.html#section-4.1
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8414.html#section-7

Mike> It's worked well in practice, so I'm not prone to use different language 
here.

                                Thanks again!
