Re: [ietf-dkim] Issue 1561: Development & Deployment guide improperly uses normative language

2008-07-03 10:05:12

Not sure it was so strong. I'd interpret the list consensus as
being to remove all normative statements where possible with
some people (but maybe not a consensus) saying that that should
get rid of them all.

If there's something that the editors feel should be normative
in the deployment guide then I guess we'll need to deal with
that based on the next rev, but that should be easier if we
get rid of unnecessary 2119 language.

recent exchange on the IETF mailing list, this won't hinge on case.)

 From the thread people seem to support the thrust of the comment, i.e.
to reduce/eliminate 2119 language where possible and definitely
avoid it (regardless of case) where its not needed.

Suggest we leave this open for now to let the editors concentrate
on the overview and process the deployment draft issue subsequently.
