Subject: [Tools-discuss] idnits: example IPv6 address warnings

Hi,

In draft-ietf-behave-address-format-05, there are rfc3849-compliant
example IPv6 addresses.
The addresses get split across lines, and then idnits considers them
not compliant as rfc3849-compliant example addresses.

I recommend that idnits check to see if the "invalid" IPv6 address was
caused by a split across lines.

I consider this a low priority problem, but one that should get
addressed at some point, so editors and reviewers don't waste time
resolving these inaccurate warnings.

Thanks,
David Harrington
