`buyeruid` name confusing in section "3.2.13: Object: User" (at least in version 2.3) #19

Open tjk opened 9 years ago

Haven't checked the other specs, but at least in 2.3 FINAL, there seems to be a typo -- it is unclear whether the User object contains a buyerid or buyeruid field (examples say one thing, table says another).

I've been told the actual field is buyeruid, but it would be nice to clean up the specification.

This was fixed in OpenRTB 2.3.1. http://www.iab.net/media/file/OpenRTB_API_Specification_Version_2_3_1.pdf

Go figure (might make sense to retroactively fix old spec documents?)! Thanks for the quick reply.

(I'm leaving this issue open only because I think old specifications should be correct, but feel free to close if you disagree)
