Julien, I think you win on this one. Authors, Please add a '0x' prefix to any hexadecimal value in the draft. In other words: s/=2/=0x2 s/ 20/ 0x20 s/ 21/ 0x21 Lou On 5/13/2013 12:33 PM, Julien Meuric wrote: > Hi. > > On my right, a simple prefix that makes values clear and unambiguous at > reading time, without the burden of references' context; on my left, 2 > confusing statements that will no more be in mind when reading figures... > I have often heard comments about RFC readability and the needed IETF > background to understand what is not explicit: 2 more characters per > figure would be both helpful and harmless. > > By the way, the IANA registry about GMPLS makes use of the '0x' prefix: > http://www.iana.org/assignments/gmpls-sig-parameters/gmpls-sig-parameters.xml#gmpls-sig-parameters-8 > > Regards, > > Julien > > > On 05/13/2013 12:59, Lou Berger wrote: >>>> 13.
