I just pushed some work I did on a plugin for Prosody, updating it to
the latest spec. Only the catalog serving part though.

If this counts as security concerns:

http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0258.html#label-catalog
> If catalog is restrictive, as indicated by the restrict attribute with

[...]

Does that mean that with an non-restrictive catalog, a client may send
no label even if there's no label-less item? Ie can restrictive=false be
interpreted as pretending there's a item without label?

> 5. Is the specification accurate and clearly written?
It's a bit heavy to read, and could benefit from some formating.
Currently it feels like a wall of text at some places.

For example, attribute names would benefit from some emphasis, like in
the quoted line above.
