Hi Dimitri, Yes your reading is correct, and you actually pointed out a mistake in the draft.
The exact processing is the one actually defined in section 10: "If a malformed PCEP message is received or the TCP connection fails, the systems sends a PCEP CLOSE message, the system releases the PCEP resources for that PCEP peer, closes the TCP connection and moves to the Idle State." So upon TCP connection failure, the PCE releases pending requests. Thus a PCC never receives responses for requests sent during a previous session. We are going to align section 5.2.5 with section 10.
