The phrase "when the server gives stream features for resumption" could mean two things: 1. Whenever a server that supports stream resumption sends stream features. OR 2. When a server sends stream features to an initiating entity that is attemping to resume a session. Given that #2 involves mind-reading, I think we mean #1. But isn't it possible that the host+port to which a client reconnects is not known at the time the server sends stream features? (The exception would seem to be that the server sends the client to some kind of load balancer.) Peter -- Peter Saint-Andre https://stpeter.im/
