I have reviewed the draft-ietf-precis-nickname-03
the only concern I have is on the last sentence of Section
3. Use in Application Protocols:
Application protocols are also allowed to define application-specific
rules governing use of nicknames in the relevant protocol slots
(e.g., rules regarding the length of nicknames).
I am not sure "use" is the term here.
The responsibilities of the specific application protocol, that are of
interest of this draft, are those that
would eventually extending the string conformation constraints (e.g.,
rules regarding the length of nicknames) ,
and that must not contradict the rules specified in Section 2.
However an application will also specify other rules governing use of
nicknames (e.g. some names are
reserved, prohibit to use etc.) but those are not of interest for this
draft as far as the string name conform to Section2.
cheers
