Summary: Ready for publication as a Proposed Standard RFC, but
with nits to
consider
Nits/editorial comments:
In 3.5 "the client MUST use a reasonable default polling interval"
is not
testable. Who determines "reasonable"? At the very least, you
should add some
text about how to determine what "reasonable" is for a given
device, and add
some text that says don't poll faster than earlier responses
limited you to.
For example, if the response at step B in the introductory diagram
had an
explicit interval of 15, but a slow-down response to an E message
didn't have
an explicit interval, you don't want them to default to, say 5
seconds (because
that's what the example in section 3.2 said, so it must be
reasonable).
Thanks for the feedback, version 12 specifies a default of 5s.
In 3.3, you say the device_code MUST NOT be displayed or
communicated. Is there
a security property that's lost if there is? Or is this just
saying "Don't
waste space or the user's time"?
It's just a waste of the user's time. This text has been modified.
The last paragraph of section 6.1 feels like a recipe for false
positives, and
for bug-entrenched code. Please reconsider it.
I've reworded it a bit, but it's actually an important usability
consideration so I do want to keep it in some form.
You need line-folding in the example in section 3.2
Can you clarify what you mean by this?
There was a line in a previous version (I thought I saw it in -10, but
right now I only see it in -09) that was too long to be published as-is
in an RFC. It looks like it's fixed in -12.
Best,
William
