Hi All, I'm having trouble understanding the rationale of intentionally invalid tags as documented here[1] Under what circumstances would an encoder produce these tags and what should a decoder do when encountering them? Since I'm working on that part of the decoder[2] anyway I thought I'd better check. Thanks, Kio [1] https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-bormann-cbor-notable-tags-03.html#section-toc.1-1.10.2.1.1 [2] https://github.com/agronholm/cbor2/pull/115
