[MMUSIC] A bug in SDP Syntax (CRLF)?



        Hello everyone,

        draft-ietf-mmusic-sdp-new-10.txt, Section 6, says:

        "The sequence CRLF (0x0d0a) is used to end a record, although
parsers SHOULD be tolerant and also accept records terminated with a
single newline character."

        However, if we look at each and every line definition in the
ABNF syntax in appendix A, all lines must end with CRLF, defined in
RFC 2234 as:

        CRLF           =  CR LF

        CR             =  %d13

        LF             =  %x0A

        An implementor would have to choose between strictly
applying the ABNF or being tolerant with single LFs.

         Should not -at least- a note be added to the ABNF clarifying
this exception? CRLF could also be replaced with something like this:

         line-end      =   CR / CR LF
