I'm picking apart every example in the spec as I crank on the testing suite. I've noticed some minor errors. This first one I just need clarification on. 1) Example Two in Section 4.3.1 --- at: 2001-08-12 09:25:00.00 type: GET HTTP: '1.0' url: '/index.html' --- at: 2001-08-12 09:25:10.00 type: GET HTTP: '1.0' url: '/toc.html' Is '2001-08-12 09:25:00.00' a legal Timestamp? I don't see it reflected in the BNF for Timestamps. The syntax seems to require a timezone. Am I wrong? Also seen in Example Five. 2) Example in Section 4.6.4 kept: |+ This has two newlines. same as "kept" above: "This has two newlines\n\n" The last line should have a period: same as "kept" above: "This has two newlines.\n\n" 3) Example in Section 4.6.5 literal: | The \ ' " characters may be freely used. Leading white space is significant. Line breaks are significant. Thus this value contains one empty line and ends with a single line break, but does not start with one. is equal to: "The \ ' " characters may \ be\nfreely used. Leading white\n space \ is significant.\n\nLine breaks are \ significant.\nThus this value contains \ one\nempty line and ends with a\nsingle \ line break, but does\nnot start with one.\n" The quoting of the 'is equal to' mapping is wrong. First line should read: is equal to: "The \\ ' \" characters may \ 4) Example in Section 4.6.7 indented text: > This is a folded paragraph followed by a list: * first entry * second entry Followed by another folded paragraph, another list: * first entry * second entry And a final folded paragraph. above is equal to: | This is a folded paragraph followed by a list: * first entry * second entry Followed by another folded paragraph and list: * first entry * second entry And a final folded paragraph. The 'above is equal to' mapping has an inconsistent fourth line: Followed by another folded paragraph, another list: That's it for now. _why |
