The following errata report has been rejected for RFC9114, "HTTP/3".
-------------------------------------- You may review the report below and at: https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid7238 -------------------------------------- Status: Rejected Type: Technical Reported by: Jaikiran Pai <jai.forums2...@gmail.com> Date Reported: 2022-11-04 Rejected by: Francesca Palombini (IESG) Section: 4.2.2 Original Text ------------- Because this limit is applied separately by each implementation that processes the message, messages below this limit are not guaranteed to be accepted. Corrected Text -------------- Because this limit is applied separately by each implementation that processes the message, messages above this limit are not guaranteed to be accepted. Notes ----- The section 4.2.2 specifies header size constraints and notes that implementations can send a SETTINGS frame with a SETTINGS_MAX_FIELD_SECTION_SIZE identifier to set a limit on the maximum size of the message header. Since this a maximum size, the sentence that states that intermediaries aren't guaranteed to accept a message below this limit seems odd and I think it should instead say "above this limit". --VERIFIER NOTES-- The current RFC text is correct. The problem that is being described is where 1) a client sends a message smaller than MAX_FIELD_SECTION_SIZE and might expect that to work but 2) the server is an intermediary that needs to forward the message onto another server that, for example, has a smaller value for MAX_FIELD_SECTION_SIZE preventing this. Any further clarification to this text, if any is needed, should be made via an update to this document.
