In article <CAL0qLwawfbehfHuz_BoL+pwcA4767MecxPem6EySHZ++M_vtfA@mail.gmail.com> you write:

That's what I'd suggest.  The spec should say what to do if you want to
interoperate.  It needn't call out things not to do in the spec -- there's an
unlimited number of them.  If you want to put an appendix explaining why
the current things to do have changed, that's OK but not urgent.

R's,
