The following errata report has been submitted for RFC7159, "The JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) Data Interchange Format". -------------------------------------- You may review the report below and at: http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?rfc=7159&eid=4298 -------------------------------------- Type: Technical Reported by: Michael Kay <mike@saxonica.com> Section: 7 Strings Original Text ------------- 4HEXDIG Corrected Text -------------- Something along the lines 4hexdig hexdig = 0..9 A..F a..f Notes ----- The prose states that within a six-character escape sequence starting \u, the hex digits can be either upper or lower case. But the grammar only allows upper case, because it uses the symbol HEXDIG which is defined in RFC 5234 to include upper case A..F only. There is thus an inconsistency beween the grammar and the prose, and although most readers are likely to know which to believe, the spec is formally ambiguous on this point. Instructions: ------------- This erratum is currently posted as "Reported". If necessary, please use "Reply All" to discuss whether it should be verified or rejected. When a decision is reached, the verifying party (IESG) can log in to change the status and edit the report, if necessary. -------------------------------------- RFC7159 (draft-ietf-json-rfc4627bis-rfc7159bis) -------------------------------------- Title : The JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) Data Interchange Format Publication Date : March 2014 Author(s) : T.
