The following errata report has been submitted for RFC7230, "Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP/1.1): Message Syntax and Routing". -------------------------------------- You may review the report below and at: http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?rfc=7230&eid=4683 -------------------------------------- Type: Technical Reported by: Daurnimator <quae@daurnimator.com> Section: 4 Original Text ------------- Corrected Text -------------- The name part of a transfer-parameter is case insensitive and MUST not be "q" (as this would be ambiguous when used as part of the TE header). Notes ----- Nothing is said about how to handle transfer-parameters. Notably, nothing is said about the case sensitivity of the parameter key. This results in a conflict with the TE header: if you see a "q" token, you cannot know if it is a transfer-parameter vs a t-ranking. It *is* noted that the "q" token is case insensitive in section 4.3. > When multiple transfer codings are acceptable, the client MAY rank > the codings by preference using a case-insensitive "q" parameter Instructions: ------------- This erratum is currently posted as "Reported". If necessary, please use "Reply All" to discuss whether it should be verified or rejected. When a decision is reached, the verifying party (IESG) can log in to change the status and edit the report, if necessary. -------------------------------------- RFC7230 (draft-ietf-httpbis-p1-messaging-26) -------------------------------------- Title : Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP/1.1): Message Syntax and Routing Publication Date : June 2014 Author(s) : R.
