1.5 Notation
The following notations are used in this document to differentiate between notes of clarification, variation from the specification, and extension points.
Notation | Explanation |
C#### | Identifies a clarification of ambiguity in the target specification. This includes imprecise statements, omitted information, discrepancies, and errata. This does not include data formatting clarifications. |
V#### | Identifies an intended point of variability in the target specification such as the use of MAY, SHOULD, or RECOMMENDED. (See [RFC2119].) This does not include extensibility points. |
E#### | Identifies extensibility points (such as optional implementation-specific data) in the target specification, which can impair interoperability. |
