Re: Last Call: draft-mcwalter-langtag-mib (Language Tag MIB) to Proposed Standard

Doug Ewell scripsit:

Since tags of 1 character are never well-formed, I suggest that the 
definition:

  SYNTAX      OCTET STRING (SIZE (0..60))

be amended to exclude the 1-character case.  I assume that a zero-length 
tag, while also not defined in RFC 4646, was included in the I-D to 
allow the special case of "no tag."

AFAIK, ASN.1 does not allow sizes like (0, 2..60).  I wouldn't even
bother with this change.

Rather than making ill-conceived suggestions for improvement based on
uninformed guesses about established conventions in a field of study with
which familiarity is limited, it is sometimes better to stick to merely
observing the usage and listening to the explanations offered, inserting
only questions as needed to fill in gaps in understanding. --Peter Constable
