Hello apps-discuss (and ART):
The DISPATCH chairs asked me to post here.
My co-authors (Paul Kyzivat and Chris Newman) and I have created a few
drafts to improve upon ABNF for IETF use. These are:
draft-seantek-abnf-more-core-rules-07
Comprehensive Core Rules and References for ABNF
***
This document extends the base definition of ABNF (Augmented Backus-
Naur Form) to include a reference syntax, along with core rules that
provide comprehensive support for certain symbols related to ASCII.
draft-seantek-constrained-abnf
Constrained ABNF
***
This document extends the base definition of ABNF (Augmented Backus-
Naur Form) to express a rule that is constrained by another rule. If
a rule B is constrained by rule A, then every production generated by
rule B must also be generated by rule A. By creating subordinate
production forms, ABNF-using specifications can formally denote the
relationship between a general rule and specific subsets of that
rule, while preserving ABNF's context-free nature.
draft-seantek-unicode-in-abnf-02
Unicode in ABNF
***
This experimental document adds support for Unicode strings in ABNF
(Augmented Backus-Naur Form), and provides certain symbols related to
Unicode code point ranges.
These drafts are being discussed on abnf-discuss@, but since that is a
fairly light mailing list, I would ask other participants to take a look
and provide any feedback on these items. They are not ready for DISPATCHing
yet, but we would like to keep them moving.
Regards,
Sean
