It happens; thanks for checking anyway (and this was exactly the reason I wanted people to verify this change :-). For now, I undid the change with <http://trac.tools.ietf.org/wg/httpbis/trac/changeset/687>. It appears that we *do* have consensus for disallowing controls in quoted-pairs, thus for: quoted-pair = "\" ( WSP / VCHAR / obs-text ) However, if that's all that we do we won't have addresses issue #173 after all. Proposal: - add a new issue for disallowing CTLs in quoted-pair - address #173 by tuning the definition of chunk-ext-val BR, Julian
