Hi Deborah, WG,
This errata has been pending for some time now, apologies to Upendra
for the delay.
My suggestion to resolve this errata is to make the following edit in
the errata report, and then approve it as an editorial change.
Section 6.1
Original Text:
Where:
<path>::= <intended-path>
[<actual-attribute-list><actual-path>]
<intended-attribute-list>
Corrected Text:
Where:
<path>::= <intended-path>
[<actual-attribute-list><actual-path>]
[<intended-attribute-list>]
Notes:
The change aligns the RBNF with the following text in the document -
Note that the intended-attribute-list is optional and
thus may be omitted.
Since RBNF is not normative, suggested to classify this as an editorial errata.
--
Furthermore, <intended-attribute-list> is the attribute-list defined
in Section 6.5 of [RFC5440] and extended by PCEP extensions.
where,
<attribute-list>::=[<LSPA>]
[<BANDWIDTH>]
[<metric-list>]
[<IRO>]
<metric-list>::=<METRIC>[<metric-list>]
Since all objects in this list are optional, so
[<intended-attribute-list>] does not change technically, but does
increase readability.
Thanks!
Dhruv
