Hi there, <http://xml.resource.org/authoring/draft-mrose-writing-rfcs.html> claims: "(Note that leading and trailing whitespace is significant.)" Also, the DTD has: <!ELEMENT spanx (%CTEXT;)> <!ATTLIST spanx xml:space (default|preserve) 'preserve' style %ATEXT; 'emph'> ...which implies that whitespace inside <spanx> is significant. In practice, that doesn't seem to be the case (in xml2rfc.tcl, rfc2629.xslt, v2). I thus conclude that the statement was something like wishful thinking, and that we can remove the xml:space default from the <spanx> definition. Best regards, Julian
