Change "SHOULD" to "should" in 10.4 #194
Conversation
As I said in a response to that email, I'd like to keep SHOULD. There are very few applications that can properly handle features that aren't cut at the anti-meridian. |
As I said in email, no problem with normative SHOULD, but that should be stated as a generic requirement, not within examples. |
@coopdanger Ah, I think I understand now. I think there are 2 ways to go.
Sound like a plan? /cc @tschaub @martinthomson @dret |

Superseded by #195. |
I understand now the issue of avoiding normative language in examples. I like that this change is simpler than #195. So reopening and merging this makes sense to me. @sgillies if you feel strongly that some of the interoperability considerations should become normative recommendations, you could continue on #195 (and it also seems like the sections don't necessarily need to be reorganized, but rather the normative language would have to come out of the examples). |
This follows the suggestions from Alissa Cooper's email. I'll admit I don't understand the nuance here, but am curious to understand.
Note that we still have other RFC2119 key words in the considerations sections (including SHOULD).
