Re: [Ltru] Issue #49: Add reference to RFC 5198 (Apps #2)



[co-chair hat on]

I conclude that there is consensus in the WG to not change anything in draft-ietf-ltru-4646bis for this issue, as argued for by various contributors in this thread.

Regards,   Martin.

I agree with Doug's points and do not see that a reference to 5198 would add specific benefits.

RFC 5198 imposes additional constraints.  These may be harmless, but
I'm reluctant to endorse technical change this late in the process.
Perhaps those who contributed to the development of RFC 5198 would
care to comment?

RFC 5198 actually allows certain things which we do not allow in the
Registry--NFC is only a SHOULD in 5198 but a MUST in draft-4646bis, and
5198 allows the bizarre CR NUL sequence which is forbidden in the
Registry.  So referencing 5198 would still require us to list the
additional constraints *we* impose.

Section 3.1.1 of the draft already has plenty of external references.
The only reason to add a reference to 5198 would be to further increase
the number of cross-references between RFCs, or to effect a technical
change for some unspecified reason.  I oppose this change.
