Type: Editorial
Reported by: Philippe Cloutier <chealer@gmail.com>

Section: 15.5.2.

Original Text
-------------
The 401 (Unauthorized) status code indicates that the request has not
been applied because it lacks valid authentication credentials for
the target resource.

Corrected Text
--------------
The 401 (Unauthorized) status code indicates that the request has not
been processed because it lacks valid authentication credentials for
the target resource.

Notes
-----
"applying a request" is not a standard expression. Usually, requests are "treated", "granted" or "processed".

This phrasing was imported in Apache Tomcat; thanks to Mark Thomas for pointing out it came from this RFC.
