This is in line with the WG discussion, and I recommend to mark it as verified.

Thanks,

--------------------------------------
Type: Technical
Reported by: Valery Smyslov <[email protected]>

Section: 4.3

Original Text
-------------
    For session resumption, as specified in [RFC5723], the situation is
    similar.  The responder, which is necessarily the peer that has
    crashed, SHOULD send a new ticket within the protected payload of the
    IKE_SESSION_RESUME exchange.  If the Initiator is also a token maker,
    it needs to send a QCD_TOKEN in a separate INFORMATIONAL exchange.

Corrected Text
--------------
    For session resumption, as specified in [RFC5723], the situation is
    similar.  The responder, which is necessarily the peer that has
    crashed, SHOULD send a new QCD_TOKEN in the IKE_AUTH exchange
    that immediately followes the IKE_SESSION_RESUME exchange.
    If the Initiator is also a token maker, it needs to send a QCD_TOKEN in
    the same IKE_AUTH exchange.


Notes
-----
Original text mixes up terms "ticket" (as Session Resumption ticket from RFC5723) and 
"token" (as QCD token from this RFC). As QCD token must never be sent in an unprotected 
message (see section 9.2 from this RFC) it cannot be sent in the IKE_SESSION_RESUME exchange 
because this exchange is done in clear. So, QCD token must be sent in the IKE_AUTH exchange that 
immediately followes the IKE_SESSION_RESUME exchange. In this case there is no need for the 
separate INFORMATIONAL exchange the Initiator's QCD token (if any) to be sent in, because it could 
be sent in the same IKE_AUTH exchange.
