Wow, I'm pretty sure I never noticed this. Even the q= I've probably seen it more often in specs than in traces, so the two combined should be extremely rare.. > 0) leave things as they are > > 1) note that this is not in use, advise not to send it, and advise > recipients to ignore it (essentially deprecating it) > > 2) kill it completely > > 3) ...? Not having ever met it I could be in favor of 2 but if it used to be valid it's a bit harsh for past implementers who tried hard to comply with the specs so probably 1 would be more suitable (like we did for the chunk extensions). Just my two cents, Willy
