updates [RFC7252] with a recommendation that servers use the Echo option #70

Closed emanjon closed 3 years ago

This is only mentioned in Abstract and intro. I think it need there needs to be some text in the body as well. The other Update has it's own subsection. "4.2. Updated Token Processing Requirements for Clients"

I added text on server requirements in #71

updated with one more commit:

Shorten amplification-mitigateion-recommendation paragraph, align text

* The "RECOMMENDED" wording is removed from the description of the
  mechanism (it was under-explained there, the new section does it
  right, and there's no need to make readers wonder about updating at
  this point)

* Reference updated simplified (we're already talking about server side
  in the paragraph)

* Comment about moving text here removed, and replaced with a more
  precise reference

  I've toyed with moved text, but it rips the use cases up to the point
  where we'd have to re-do all the items as subsections for
  consistency.

... and merging (comments still appreciated, but I need the branches consolidated for futher editing)

(... and that comment should have gone to #70 ... anyway)

Some reformulations in febc426. I think this is ready to close.

chrysn commented 3 years ago

Has long been ready, and recently gotten a more explicit cross-reference too.
