However, I noticed one small issue. The definition of does not allow for multiple lines of prose. It seems to me that if a prose description becomes necessary (as a "last resort") it might be appropriate to allow a full description of the problem element rather than force the user to be too terse to completely specify the element. Thus I would recommend be changed to: prose-val = "<" *(%x20-3D / %x3F-7E / (CRLF WSP) ) ">" ^^^^^^^^^^^^ to allow for folding of the prose description. -- Bill
