It now allows all permissable forms, but it doesn't convey *what* the special uses of "#" " " and "=" are. For example, I could read the BNF and form a DN like below and expect it to work: >cn=#abafula,dc=example,dc=com This can be addressed by saying (in words) that string cannot start with a "#". e.g.: string = *( stringchar | pair ) ; the leading stringchar may not be a "#" or " " (see 2.4) |
