+1, Robert's wordsmithing for this is better (aside from the mention of pub:edit anyway)

In section 9, last sentence of the first paragraph:
“Clients SHOULD be constructed with this in mind and SHOULD perform a
GET on the member resource before editing.”

Shouldn't the first “SHOULD” be a “should” and the second a “MAY” or
even “may” (or “might”)?

+1 to MAY. Generally we won't use 'should' unless it's a spec.


"Clients MAY be constructed with this in mind and MAY perform a GET on the member resource before editing."

??????????

Write it the way I've described in my other email, and you'll have it described clearly. It's generally a bad idea to use the word "this" without a noun after it.
