Aaron,

You can issue a new version of the draft, even as it sits in my queue.  I'd
prefer you do that before I start my review.

>>   - Connection timeout
>>   - Request timeout
>>   - 5xx HTTP errors.

>> Long term errors include, for instance:
>>
>>   - Retry-After is invalid or not present
>>   - RenewalInfo object is invalid
>>   - DNS lookup failure
>>   - Connection refused
>>   - Non-5xx HTTP error
>>
>> On receiving a long term error, clients SHOULD perform the next
>> RenewalInfo fetch as soon as possible after six hours have passed (or some
>> other locally configured default).
>>
>> ### Server choice of Retry-After

>> revoke certificates within 24 hours of notification of a problem might
>> choose to reserve twelve hours for investigation, six hours for clients to
>> fetch RenewalInfo, and six hours for clients to perform a renewal. Setting
>> a small value for Retry-After means that clients can respond more quickly,
>> but also incurs more load on the server. Servers should estimate their

>> parties may also monitor RenewalInfo endpoints.
