Hi, two observations in draft -08 (not new, I didn't look into any drafts incl. 3987bis for some months):
* Section 5.1 should only list "garbage", i.e., the
differences from <ucschar> in 2.2, and the various
non-URI US-ASCII characters:
leiri-add-ons = %x20 / "<" / ">" / "{" / "}"
/ %x22 / "\" / "^" / "`" / "|"
/ %x00-1F / %x7F / %x80-9F
/ %xFDD0-FDEF
/ %xFFF0-FFFD
/ <iprivate>
Apparently draft -08 says that the "garbage" includes
64 of the 66 non-characters, only u+FFFE and u+FFFF
are excluded. Is that as it should be?
* IIRC your '"' notation won't pass in ABNF validators,
I've used hex. You could also import DQUOTE, SP, and
CTL from STD 68; but CTL does not include %80-9F.
* In section 6 you apparently forgot u+FFFE and u+FFFF.
Maybe a new term <other-non-char> or similar defined
in section 5.1 would also help at the end of section 6.
* In section 6 please replace one string of weasel words:
"These characters originally have been excluded from
URIs". These characters still are excluded from URIs,
i.e., STD 66 does not list them anywhere as permitted.
* s/Disallowed or Not Recommended/Disallowed/ please, or
is 3987bis intended for "proposed standard" instead of
"standard"?
