Hi all,
I'd committed to reviewing the draft at IETF 119, so here is my feedback up
to section 3.1:

   1. Section 1: The sentence "Each protected resource publishing metadata
   about itself makes its own metadata document available at a well-known
   location rooted at the protect resource's URL, even when the resource
   server implements multiple protected resources." has two issues:
      1. Typo: "protected resource's URL" instead of "protect
      resource's URL"
      2. This contradicts the statement in section 3, which states the
      "well-known" should be inserted between the host and path components
   2. Section 1: The sentence "The means by which the client obtains the
   location of the protected resource metadata document is out of scope"
   conflicts with Section 3, which says "Protected resources MUST make ...
   (it) available at a path ...".
   3. Section 2, "authorization_servers": since this is normative language,
   instead of saying "Protected resources MAY choose not to advertise some
   supported authorization servers even when this parameter is used.", should
   we say "the list of OAuth authorization servers MAY be a subset of the
   authorization servers supported by the protected resource."
   4. Section 3, paragraph 1: The last sentence, i.e. "The well-known URI
   path suffix used MUST be registered in the IANA "Well-Known URIs" registry"
   is a bit confusing. Should it say something like "If not using the default
   well-known URI, such URI path suffix MUST be registered..." This last
   sentence of paragraph 1 can actually be dropped, and the first sentence in
   the 2nd paragraph can be updated to refer to the IANA well-known registry.
   5. Section 3, paragraph 2: The first sentence should capitalize "MAY" in
   "...application-specific ways may define and register..."
   6. Section 3, paragraph 2: The first sentence can drop the word "used"
   here: "...URI path suffixes used to publish..." The sentence will make more
   sense with that word dropped.
   7. Section 3, paragraph 2: The last sentence is additional non-normative
   language, and could be removed, or could be moved to the "IANA
   Considerations" section
   8. Section 3, paragraph 3: "...specify what well-known URI string..."
   should be changed to "...specify what well-known URI path-suffix..."
   9. Section 3, paragraph 3: Instead of saying "...publish its metadata at
   multiple well-known locations'', should we say "...publish its metadata
   using multiple well-known path-suffixes''?
   10. Section 3.1, last paragraph: The sentence "This is required in some
   multi-tenant hosting configurations" may be removed as it is not the only
   situation in which a host may have multiple OPRM documents.

I will continue the review but I wanted to update the WG on my review so
far.
