Hi,
This draft provides a specification of the BNF we already use in PCEP and
makes it available for use in future PCEP extensions.
I intend asking that this draft progress in the standards process relatively
soon.
Please review and comment as soon as possible.
Thanks,
Adrian

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories.
Title : Reduced Backus-Naur Form (RBNF) A Syntax Used in Various
Protocol Specifications
Author(s) : A. Farrel
Filename : draft-farrel-rtg-common-bnf-06.txt
Pages : 12
Date : 2008-10-24
Several protocols have been specified using a common variant of the
Backus-Naur Form (BNF) of representing message syntax. However, there
is no formal definition of this version of BNF.
There is value in using the same variant of BNF for the set of
protocols that are commonly used together. This reduces confusion and
simplifies implementation.
Updating existing documents to use some other variant of BNF that is
already formally documented would be a substantial piece of work.
This document provides a formal definition of the variant of BNF that
has been used (that we call Reduced BNF), and makes it available for
use by new protocols.
