It looks as if you're running your XML through the v2 parser and formatter.

To use the <contact> element you need to use the v3 parser and formatter,
either by converting your v2 xml explicitly to v3 with 'xml2rfc --v2v3',
or by having it done on the fly by using the v3 switch 'xml2rfc --v3 ...'.

The legacy v2 parser and formatters knows nothing about the new v3 elements.


Best regards,
