Grammar nits (Re: [Fwd: I-D ACTION:draft-good-ldap-ldif-04.txt])

[Harald Tveit Alvestrand <Harald@Alvestrand.no>]

I do wish you would switch to RFC 2234 ABNF rather than RFC 822 ABNF.
RFC 2234 is a *little* better specified - and I've got a parser for it.

About 5) Changed "0,1*xxx" "0*1xxx" in compliance with RFC822:

You missed one - in change-moddn.
Personally, I also find the number of <prose-val> in the grammar
disturbing, especially since many of them can easily be replaced by
character ranges.

Also, the following messages may or may not be problems:

base-64-dn: Used 1 times, but not defined
base-64-rdn: Used 1 times, but not defined
base64-rdn: Defined but not used
ldif-file: Defined but not used

base-64-rdn is used, base64-rdn is defined.
I guess the base-64-dn is similar.

The parser (in Perl) is available from
http://www.ops.ietf.org/abnf/

Have fun!
