The following errata report has been rejected 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=3983 -------------------------------------- Status: Rejected Type: Technical Reported by: Alain BENEDETTI <alainb06@free.fr> Date Reported: 2014-05-09 Rejected by: Pete Resnick (IESG) Section: 2. Original Text ------------- JSON-text = ws value ws Corrected Text -------------- JSON-text = [BOM] ws value ws BOM = %xFEFF Notes ----- Section 8.1 states: [START QUOTE] (...) implementations that parse JSON texts *MAY* ignore the presence of a byte order mark rather than treating it as an error. [END QUOTE] Indeed that means that a BOM *CAN* occur, and *MAY* be accepted instead of returning an error. So, if the BOM can be accepted, the grammar is incomplete as it does not show it. Furthermore, about BOMs, see my other comments. --VERIFIER NOTES-- The WG was clear that syntactically, the BOM is not part of a valid JSON-text, but implementation advice included that if one appears, it MAY be ignored. The document is correct as-is. -------------------------------------- RFC7159 (draft-ietf-json-rfc4627bis-rfc7159bis) -------------------------------------- Title : The JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) Data Interchange Format Publication Date : March 2014 Author(s) : T.
