And 13.1.2 *does* distinguish between the cases, but I'm not immediately convinced that it does so in a way that's compatible with the SHOULD clause you reproduced above. It seems like a similar issue between the 13.1.2 MAY and the 14.46 MUSTs. > There's an awful lot of redundancy between 13.1.1-2 and 14.46. I'd agree that there seems to be a lot of redundancy; all these different locations seem to be trying to specify the same thing, or at least parts of the same thing with overlap in between. But, how should we go about fixing it? <snip> Thanks, -- Travis
