RFC723* Errata Status

1. Errata

The table below summarizes the errata raised against the "previous" HTTP specifications ([RFC7230], [RFC7231], [RFC7232], [RFC7233], [RFC7234], [RFC7235]), plus their mapping to Github issues on <https://github.com/httpwg/http-core> once they have been resolved.

The errata information has been scraped from <https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php>, using the scripts described in <https://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/rfc2629xslt/rfc2629xslt.html#rfc-editor.errata>. The mapping from erratum to Github issue is done by inspecting the change logs in the new drafts ([Cache], [Messaging], [Semantics]). Note that although this information is auto-generated, it might lag a few days.

<https://github.com/httpwg/http-core/issues?q=label%3Aerratum> provides a view over Github issues that have been opened for existing errata; this list can include errata which haven't been dealt with yet.
