Status: Held for Document Update
Type: Editorial

Reported by: Ben Smyth <[email protected]>
Date Reported: 2020-04-24
Held by: Paul Wouters (IESG)

Section: GLOBAL

Original Text
-------------
terminate and abort are used interchangeable, but this isn't explained until 
after such use.

In Section 6.2, we have: In the rest of this specification, when the phrases 
"terminate the connection" and "abort the handshake" are used without a 
specific alert it means that the implementation SHOULD send the alert indicated 
by the
descriptions below.  

Corrected Text
--------------
Perhaps explain terminology earlier. At the very least, in Section 6.2, open 
the above sentence with "Throughout this specification"



Notes
-----
 This got incorporated into the bis document, but not exactly as suggested.
