I have one comment in Section 4.3, which says: One consequence of disallowing space characters in the IdentifierClass might be to effectively discourage the use of ASCII space (or, even more problematically, non-ASCII space characters) within identifiers created in newer application protocols; given the challenges involved in properly handling space characters in identifiers and other protocol strings, the Working Group considered this to be a feature, not a bug. I find the use of the phrase “even more problematically” confusing given that it comes after “to effectively discourage.” I think the intended meaning here is that if non-ASCII space characters were to be used (or _encouraged_), that would be even more problematic than if ASCII space characters were to be used (or encouraged), right? I would suggest the following edit to the first part of the first sentence: One consequence of disallowing space characters in the IdentifierClass might be to effectively discourage the use of ASCII space (or the even more problematic non-ASCII space characters) within identifiers created in newer application protocols; _______________________________________________ precis mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/precis
