Re: [precis] I-D Action: draft-ietf-precis-7700bis-01.txt

Hi Peter et al.

A few quick notes regarding your draft to replace RFC 7700:

* Nit: §1.1 ¶3 uses the term "display name" several times, but the
document otherwise uses the term "nickname"
* §2.1: "May any instances of non-ASCII space be mapped…" sounds odd,
should this just say "Instances of non-ASCII space should be mapped…"
* §2.2 Specifies that UTF-8 MUST be used as the encoding; do we really
want to limit this to UTF-8 only? Is this for comparison purposes?
Then again, 99.99% of the time UTF-8 is what you should be using
anyways, so I'm not sure that it matters.
* §2.3: "Normalization Rule" is listed twice for enforcement

Best,
Sam
