ATX Header closing space confusion

Spec
1

I don’t see any reference requiring spaces after the ATX header text for closing #'s
I.E.
what does ### This Rocks### produce?

Will it be

This Rocks###

or will it be

This Rocks

Spaces are not required before the closing #'s. This could be
explicitly stated (though it is implied by the principle that
what the spec doesn’t prohibit is permitted), and an example given.

I’ve changed the spec to require space before the closing sequence of #s. This makes sense, given that space is required after the opening sequence – the same reasons apply to both cases. See http://github.com/jgm/CommonMark/issues/169.

Thank you, I find that much clearer
