Bruce will ask about a leading zero in 2DIGIT, is it octal ?
Hm, the RfC 2821 Snum is worse, so maybe that's not critical.
But STD 66 (3968) offers a correct dec-octet, please copy it
for your "qnum". Or prepare a text about "octal". Yes, there
is even an RfC about precisely this issue. Weird or not, it's
how it is.
RFC3968 does look like it is the right RFC. Which section?
I think I found it. I'm pretty sure you meant RFC3986 not RFC3968...
