Re: [Idna-update] [Editorial Errata Reported] RFC5890 (5484)

[John C Klensin <[e-mail]>]

This erratum, as Vint indicates, is correct.  In the evolution
of 5890, the definitions were reshuffled several times and it is
easy to guess how the error might have occurred.  I don't know
why neither I nor the RFC Editor missed it in the final version,
but mea culpa.

For a future version, almost certainly the right fix is to
rearrange the text again so that all of the definitions either
follow or precede that comment.

Peter, thanks for the careful reading.
