Inexsitent obsolete in abstract #26

Open aretana opened 1 year ago

aretana commented 1 year ago

The output of idnits points at obsoletes language that isn't there.

The output includes this comment:

-- The abstract seems to indicate that this document obsoletes RFC7761, but the header doesn't have an 'Obsoletes:' line to match this.

But the abstract doesn't use "obsoletes" anywhere near the mention of rfc7761.
