    This PR proposes a number of spelling and grammar updates to BIP78. Nothing here should change the actual content of the BIP, though I’m new to Payjoin and would appreciate a sanity check :)

    273 *** Verify that <code>non_witness_utxo</code> or <code>witness_utxo</code> are filled in.

    DanGould commented at 2:38 am on June 20, 2024:

    I believe this rule actually specifies that all inputs have identical nSequence values. Perhaps a more precise comment than the original would be

    0** Verify that the payjoin proposal inputs all specify the same sequence value.
    

    satsie commented at 3:17 am on June 20, 2024:

    Ooo thanks for the clarification! I did not realize this was referring to nSequence

    Accepted both suggestions and rebased. Appreciate you taking a look at this!

    This works as-is, but could be more specific by adding a subject:

    This clears up the language quite a bit.

    I left one comment about the mixed sequence number validation step.

    I’m not sure that this is the intended meaning (see the lines immediately following this one). It looks to me like the idea is that error codes that are not well known should not appear in the UI and be printed in the debug log only. Also, this change would require author sign-off to ensure it doesn’t alter the intended meaning of the text.

    DanGould commented at 4:49 am on June 21, 2024:
    Every spec I’ve seen has separate well-known error codes with templates to display to users, and a generic unknown error code for which messages they contain are only printed to debug logs. I missed that this changed themeaning in my first review. It should be reworded not to change the meaning in my view.

    suggestion: However, it is important that error codes and messages that are not well-known, do not appear on the sender’s software user interface.

    satsie commented at 8:48 pm on July 3, 2024:

    Thanks @remcoros! I like that suggestion. I think it brings more clarity while still preserving the meaning. Admittedly, this sentence has been a bit of a head scratcher for me. If I adopt remcoros’s suggestion, I don’t think it would it need BIP author sign off, right?

    For now I rebased and just left this sentence alone. If there is consensus on how to reword it without changing the meaning, I am happy to open up a follow up PR.


    jonatack commented at 1:17 am on July 4, 2024:
    @satsie Happy to review your future follow-up to reword this confusing passage in a way that makes sense without changing the intended meaning.

    Mostly looks good modulo my comment. However, any changes that could alter the meaning of the text would need to be signed off by the BIP author. Perhaps split those out to a separate commit or PR.

    Perhaps “might” here, if this is a suggestion and not a hard rule (would need BIP author sign-off along with the proposed change in line 192). I’m not sure if this section is describing a SHOULD or a MUST.

    Thanks for the review @jonatack! I will create a separate PR with the changes that are definitely just spelling or grammar related and rebase this (since it has comment history) to only include the ones that would need sign off from the BIP author.
  14. jonatack commented at 2:18 pm on June 21, 2024: contributor
    @satsie following up on the thread #1623 (review), perhaps keep all the changes in this PR if while updating your change there it becomes clear that they are editorial-only and don’t alter the meaning of the text. I’m not sure the BIP author is active in providing review feedback here at the moment.
