James, Christer: I went through the minor change you are suggesting to
the ABNF.  Essentially, you want to change two things:

   - s/algo-list/algo-value/
   - change the variable repetition rule such that it applies to
     the production definition of other-algo

In terms of actual change, this is:

OLD:

    oc-algo     = "oc-algo" EQUAL DQUOTE algo-list *(COMMA algo-list)
                  DQUOTE
    algo-list   = "loss" / *(other-algo)
    other-algo  = %x41-5A / %x61-7A / %x30-39

NEW:

    oc-algo     = "oc-algo" EQUAL DQUOTE algo-value *(COMMA algo-value)
                  DQUOTE
    algo-value  = "loss" / other-algo
    other-algo  = 1*(%x41-5A / %x61-7A / %x30-39)

Note that this change does perturb the intent of the old production
rule (as far as I can see it, at least).  Either of the above grammars
produce the following valid token sequence:

   oc-algo="loss"
   oc-algo="loss,rate"
   oc-algo="loss,rate,window"

However, if the new change appears to read better, I am happy to change
it as suggested.

Thanks,
