[Tools-discuss] XML2RFC version used by https://datatracker.ietf.org/submit/?

[Spencer Dawkins at IETF <[e-mail]>]

I apologize for asking here, but I always get correct answers quickly. Have
you people thought about your incentive structure?

On https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-mops-streaming-opcons/, I,
and one co-author, are using this format of author with only a country
attribute specified for <postal>..

    <author initials="S." surname="Dawkins" fullname="Spencer Dawkins">
      <organization>Tencent America LLC</organization>
      <address>
        <postal>
          <country>United States of America</country>
        </postal>
        <email>[e-mail]</email>
      </address>
    </author>

That processes just fine with XML2RFC 3.8.0, but errors out when I try to
submit the XML file, which I try to provide so that it's available for
anyone doing updates in the future without conversion.

I remember seeing the same error before I updated to a newer version of
xml2rfc.

Is the submit tool using this version of XML2RFC on purpose?

I can still upload the TXT file, but since that's like the third preferred
input format out of three, I thought I should ask while my workaround still
works!

Best,

Spencer
