Nits:
- Section 1 (S1), second paragraph: I suspect that the text here is put to
discourage implementers from using the IAN extension. Is there any specific
reason why normative (SHOULD NOT) language is not used?
Hi Vijay -
I think that was my restatement of a discussion we had. If you wanted
to use normative language in this sentence then "Note that while this
construct MAY..." is where I'd place it. As this in the introduction, I
believe (perhaps mistakenly) BCP14 language is generally not used in
that section without great need. The use of this was a "don't care"
not a "we don't think you should use it".
Mike
