Hi again, We believe we have found a workaround to get the text to display as expected. You can see the details here: https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/rpat/U0cMkxnPVmk5gcH5dz7LUbStUWU/ We are waiting a few more days to understand if there are better alternatives.
As this workaround required the use of <br>, we noticed some other unconventional uses of <br> that were reintroduced into the XML during AUTH48. Please review the following updates in <https://www.rfc-editor.org/authors/rfc9676br.txt>: a) Section 2.1, example for "jurisdiction-unit” - we removed the use of <br> in the example. b) Section 8 - we combined the ABNF into one <sourcecode> block and condensed the groupings of ABNF with their explanatory comments. Please review and let us know if you have any major objections.
