I agree that we shouldn't change 3280bis, particularly since it is recycling as a Proposed Standard. The next I-D series leading to Draft Standard is plenty of time to make this change. At that time, I'd suggest retaining upper bounds as informational with accompanying text stating that consumers SHOULD accept data objects of unspecified size and that producers MAY conform to the informational upper bounds for legacy interoperability.

If they had, I'd expect a whole bunch of people to have said so. They didn't, or I missed it. So I think that we shouldn't change 3280bis, but would have no problem with someone writing up an I-D that was a delta on 3280bis that removed or reset those bounds. I reckon we'd get that done in less than a year...maybe. S.
