Thanks Francesca.

Reminder, there are several issues that the current draft does not
address but which were raised many weeks ago.

Some of those opened by me are:

1) The language about combining field instances is somewhat misleading
(https://github.com/httpwg/http-extensions/issues/2326,
https://github.com/httpwg/http-extensions/issues/2324).

2) The relation to sfbis is not clear (previously mentioned in mail, now
tracked in https://github.com/httpwg/http-extensions/issues/2362).

I just checked and there are 10 (now 11) open issues related to the
spec; I believe it would be good to address those (plus the things you
raised), submit a new draft, and start IETF LC only after that has happened.

Best regards, Julian
