Hi David, Thank you for your reply. We have updated the files with your additional tweaks and noted your approval on the AUTH48 status page: https://www.rfc-editor.org/auth48/rfc9729
The updated files have been posted here (please refresh): https://www.rfc-editor.org/authors/rfc9729.md https://www.rfc-editor.org/authors/rfc9729-diff.html (comprehensive text diff) https://www.rfc-editor.org/authors/rfc9729-auth48diff.html (AUTH48 text diff) (Note: We have adjusted the wrapping to now have a width of 80.) https://www.rfc-editor.org/authors/rfc9729-mdrfcdiff.html (comprehensive md diff) https://www.rfc-editor.org/authors/rfc9729-mdauth48diff.html (AUTH48 md diff) https://www.rfc-editor.org/authors/rfc9729-mdlastdiff.html (last version to this one) We will now await approvals of the content from David M. Oliver and Jonathan Hoyland.
