Editorial: Should this not be "The content of <intended> is" and "the content of <intended>"? There are several possible pitfalls here since (i) <operational> can change anytime, (ii) it might not be easy/possible to obtain a consistent snapshot of <operational>, and (iii) dynamic datastores can provide values that "overwrite" <intended> and hence comparing values may not really be sufficient. As long as the text is understood as additional explanation and not used to write naive code to determine how much of <intended> has been applied, it is fine. Otherwise, it may be a source of future problems. /js -- Juergen Schoenwaelder Jacobs University Bremen gGmbH Phone: +49 421 200 3587 Campus Ring 1 | 28759 Bremen | Germany Fax: +49 421 200 3103 <http://www.jacobs-university.de/> _______________________________________________ netmod mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/netmod
