Title : Deprecating Use of the "X-" Prefix in Application Protocols
Author(s) : Peter Saint-Andre

Filename : draft-saintandre-xdash-03.txt
Pages : 12
Date : 2011-07-26
Historically, there has often been a perceived distinction between
"standard" and "non-standard" parameters (such as media types and
header fields), by prefixing the latter with the string "X-" or
similar constructions (e.g., "x.").
In practice, this convention causes more problems than it solves.
Therefore, this document deprecates the "X-" convention for most
application protocol parameters.
