Hello all,

In https://www.rfc-editor.org/materials/FAQ-xml2rfcv3.html it says I need to wrap unicode
characters in <u> tags (which is already a bit confusing:
https://github.com/rfc-format/draft-iab-xml2rfc-v3-bis/issues/205).

Due to some other bug, I was testing (html) entities and if I put:

     <t>this is some dashes &#x2011;</t>

In the XML, xml2rfc --text renders the "-" (but then the proper unicode one) in the text
document... which now puzzles me.

Is <u> really needed? Or are entities not allowed? Or something else that I'm not seeing?

Thanks for any insight.


/Miek
