The following errata report has been submitted for RFC7622,
"Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP): Address Format".

--------------------------------------
You may review the report below and at:
https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid5789

--------------------------------------
Type: Technical
Reported by: Florian Schmaus <flo@geekplace.eu>

Section: 3.2.1

Original Text
-------------
An entity that prepares a string for inclusion in an XMPP domainpart
slot MUST ensure that the string consists only of Unicode code points
that are allowed in NR-LDH labels or U-labels as defined in
[RFC5890].

Corrected Text
--------------
An entity that prepares a string for inclusion in an XMPP
domainpart slot MUST ensure that the string consists only of
- code points allowed in U-labels as defined in [RFC5890]
- % U+0025 PERCENT SIGN
- . U+002E (FULL STOP, DNS label separator "dot")
- : U+003A (COLON)
- ] U+005B (LEFT SQUARE BRACKET)
- [ U+005D (RIGHT SQUARE BRACKET)

Notes
-----
This is a follow up and update on Errata ID #5769.  Besides allowing DNS label separators in the domainpart, this further allows codepoints not allowed in U-labels but required by the IP-literal rule of RFC6874, which is used by RFC7622 to allow IPv6 addresses in XMPP domainparts. As in the previous errata, this also drops the reference to NR-LDH labels, which I believe to be unnecessary.

Instructions:
-------------
This erratum is currently posted as "Reported". If necessary, please
use "Reply All" to discuss whether it should be verified or
rejected. When a decision is reached, the verifying party  
can log in to change the status and edit the report, if necessary.
