Re: [Gen-art] Genart last call review of draft-ietf-httpbis-header-structure-18

David, thanks for your review and thanks to everyone for the discussion. As I noted in my No Objection ballot, it seems like at a minimum the options available for integers larger than 10^15 should be noted somewhere so that readers are alert to it, even if no particular option is recommended.

Perhaps not, but a larger int would do the trick. That said, I'm not sure this is worth the late change. Cheers, > On 7 May 2020, at 4:47 pm, Poul-Henning Kamp wrote: > > > In message <977f061c-a4bb-413b-b26c-51c7a694f...@mnot.net>, Mark Nottingham > writes: > >> Perhaps in full co

Re: [Gen-art] Genart last call review of draft-ietf-httpbis-header-structure-18

Thanks for going into detail on this Poul-Henning! In my use-case the numbers are identifiers with some arithmetic properties (ordering, and whether they're even or odd) so I think they fit into the class D you described. I think a byte sequence with defined endianness and size restriction should
