Sounds good. > In s2, the definition of Foo-Example Header seems to be enclosed in > "--8<--" and "-->8--" in the TXT version, could be a bug in the tools? Our AD commented that it was difficult to distinguish the example spec text from the surrounding spec text in the text/plain rendering. These "scissor" marks were intended to serve that purpose; I suppose they're not as common as they used to be. My assumption is that the RFC Editor is going to propose a more suitable way to do this. > In s3.1.2 and s3.2, in the example, I was confused by "a=?0" and "b=?0" until > I > s3.3.6. > Perhaps reordering sections or adding a reference would help?

I'm a little wary of giving a single recommendation here; it depends on the use case. It might be that it would be better to use two integers, for example, and add, multiply or otherwise combine them. Or it might make sense to implicitly multiple (e.g., *100) the value. Or it might make sense to yes, use a string -- or binary.
