Introduction This document describes version 3 ('v3') of the 'XML2RFC' vocabulary; an XML-based language ('Extensible Markup Language', [XML]) used for writing RFCs ([RFCSTYLE]) and Internet-Drafts ([IDGUIDE]). This document obsoletes the version ("v2") vocabulary [XML2RFCv2], which contains the extended language definition. That document in turn obsoletes the original version ("v1") [RFC2629]. This document directly copies the material from [XML2RFCv2] where possible; as that document makes its way toward RFC publication, this document will incorporate as many of the changes as possible. Note that the vocabulary contains certain constructs that might not be used when generating the final text; however, they can provide useful data for other uses (such index generation, populating a keyword database, or syntax checks). 1.1. Differences from v2 to v3 The following is a hopefully-complete list of all the technical changes between [XML2RFCv2] and this document. Note that the list is for the current version of this document only. There are additional changes that are expected to the v3 vocabulary that are being discussed. Also note that changes to the design choices for the differences are also expected. The design criteria of the changes from v2 to v3 are: o The intention is that starting and editing a v3 document will be easier than for a v2 document. o There will be good v2-to-v3 conversion tools for when an author wants to change versions. o There are no current plans to make v3 XML the required submission format for drafts or RFCs. That might happen eventually, but it is likely to be years away. There is a desire to keep as much of the v2 grammar as makes sense within the above design criteria and not to make gratuitous changes to the v2 grammar. Another way to say this is "we would rather encourage backward compatibility but not be constrained by it". Still, the goal of starting and editing a v3 document being easier than for a v2 document is more important than backwards compatibility with v2, given the latter two design criteria. The list of changes so far is: Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 4] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 o In <address>, allowed the sub-elements to be in any order. o In <artwork> and <author>, added optional "xml:lang" attribute. o Allowed <artwork> to be in a <section>, not just a figure. o Gave more specifics of handling the "type" attribute in <artwork>. o Added the <b>, <i>, and <tt> elements. o In <front>, made <date> optional. o Changed the handling of <list>. This large change, including the addition of the <li> element, is described in Section 1.1.1. o In <postal>, allowed the sub-elements to be in any order. Also allowed the inclusion of <postalbody>. o Added <postalbody>, free text that represents the address. o Changed the handling of <reference>. This large change is described in Section 1.1.2. o In <section>, added the optional "numbered" and "removeinrfc" attributes. o Removed the <spanx> element, and replaced it with <b>, <i>, and <tt>. o Added a "style" attribute to <t> to allow for block quotes and indented paragraphs. o In <ttcol>, added <xref>, <eref>, <iref>, and <cref> as optional children. o Removed the <vspace> element because it is no longer needed for lists. 1.1.1. Design for Changes in List Handling This section describes one of the larger changes in the design of v3, namely the way lists are handled. The community has asked for many changes to list handing to make creating and editing lists more intuitive. The goals include: o List items can have more than one paragraph without triggering another list label. Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 5] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 o Lists should be block elements, not inline (flow) elements. They should be usable outside <t>. o Give more control over the labels for "style" of "letters", "numbers", or "symbols". Make more explicit the rules for nested lists that use the defaults for a "style". o Make hanging lists more like other list styles. o Make a real "dictionary" style, with the definition starting on a new line. o Don't mix label style with content (the "format" attribute). o Create a new mechanism to cause a paragraph to be indented, without using <list style="empty">. To meet these goals, the following changes have been made in the v3 vocabulary: o <list> is changed to have each list item is represented by a <li> element. o The content model for <li> is that it either contains free text (which can contain non-blick elements such as <b>, <cref>), or it contains one or more <t> elements. In the latter case, having more than one <t> element causes breaks but without triggering another label. o <list> no longer needs to be inside of <t>, and can appear in the other contexts where a list might be expected. o <list> has a new optional "anchor" attribute so that a list can be referenced from other places in the text. o For the "style" attributes in <list>: * For "letters", "numbers", and "symbols", there is an optional "format" attribute that matches the current one for formatting the label. There will be a clear set of defaults for each of these given in the spec. * For "hanging", the <li> element has an optional attribute of "hangText". * Add a new style of "dictionary", the <li> element has an optional attribute of "term". Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 6] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 An example of using the new format for a simple bulleted list where the second item has two paragraphs is: <list style="symbols"> <li>This is the first element with a bullet.</li> <li><t>This is the second element with a bullet.</t> <t>This is part of the second element, but it does not have a bullet.</t></li> <li>This is the third element with a bullet.</li> </list> 1.1.2. Design for Changes in Reference Handling This section describes one of the larger changes in the design of v3, namely the additions to make using references easier. Most references in most recent RFCs are just to RFCs; sometimes they are Internet Drafts as work-in-progress; much less often they are pointers to standards of other SDOs, research articles, or just plain URLs. There have been many complaints about how difficult it is for people who don't have strong XML skills to use references when making Internet Drafts. The two popular methods now for references to RFCs are entering the whole reference by hand (hopefully getting all the fiddly bits of <front> and <seriesinfo> correct), or using XML entities that call out the xml.resource.org. Both work, but both have their faults. The first requires good copying skills and sometimes causes difficult XML errors; the second prevents you from changing the anchor name and, less importantly, also requires that you be online when you run the xml2rfc processor. To make entering references easier for the vast majority of cases, the following changes have been made in the v3 vocabulary: o The <reference> element can take another optional pair of attributes: "series" and "document". For example, the value for "series" would be "rfc", "fyi", "id", "bcp", and "std" for IETF- controlled documents; there would be many series for non-IETF documents as well. The value for "document" depends on the series, as described in <reference>. o The processor would emit a properly-formatted output for the reference in the non-canonical display formats based on rules built into the processor and data for the references. The library used for expansion of the references will be maintained by the RFC Editor. Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 7] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 o Thus, the contents of <reference> changes from requiring a <front> element to making the <front> element optional if a "series" is given. 1.2. Syntax Notation The XML vocabulary here is defined in prose, based on the Relax NG schema ([RNC]) contained in Appendix B (specified in Relax NG Compact Notation, "RNC"). Note that the schema can be used for automated validity checks, but certain constraints are only described in prose (example: the conditionally required presence of the "abbrev" attribute). 2. Elements [[anchor2: In the section below, some elements/attributes do not have a prose description yet. This is because this is work-in-progress; feedback with accurate descriptions is appreciated.]] The sections below describe all elements and their attributes. Note that attributes not labeled "mandatory" are optional. 2.1. <abstract> Contains the abstract of the document. The abstract ought to be self-contained and thus should not contain references or unexpanded abbreviations. See Section 4.3 of [RFCSTYLE] for more information. This element appears as child element of: <front> (Section 2.20). Content model: One or more <t> elements (Section 2.41) 2.2. <address> Provides address information for the author. This element appears as child element of: <author> (Section 2.6). Content model: In any order: o <postal> elements (Section 2.30) Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 8] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 o <phone> elements (Section 2.29) o <facsimile> elements (Section 2.17) o <email> elements (Section 2.15) o <uri> elements (Section 2.46) 2.3. <annotation> Provides additional prose augmenting a bibliographical reference. For instance: <annotation> Latest version available at <eref target='http://www.w3.org/TR/xml'/>. </annotation> ...will generate the text used in the reference for [XML]. This element appears as child element of: <reference> (Section 2.34). Content model: In any order: o Text o <xref> elements (Section 2.48) o <eref> elements (Section 2.16) o <iref> elements (Section 2.22) o <cref> elements (Section 2.13) o <tt> elements (Section 2.44) o <b> elements (Section 2.7) o <i> elements (Section 2.21) 2.4. <area> Provides information about the IETF area this document applies to (currently not used when generating documents). Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 9] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 The value ought to be either the fullname or the abbreviation of one of the IETF areas as listed on <http://www.ietf.org/iesg/area.html>: "Applications", "app", "General", "gen", "Internet", "int", "Operations and Management", "ops", "Real-time Applications and Infrastructure", "rai", "Routing", "rtg", "Security", "sec", "Transport", "tsv". This element appears as child element of: <front> (Section 2.20). Content model: only text content. 2.5. <artwork> This element allows the inclusion of "artwork" into the document. <artwork> provides full control of horizontal whitespace and line breaks, and thus is used for a variety of things, such as: o diagrams ("line art"), o source code, o formal languages (such as ABNF or the RNC notation used in this document), o complex tables, or o protocol unit diagrams. Alternatively, the "src" attribute allows referencing an external graphics file, such as a bitmap or a vector drawing. In this case, the textual content acts as fallback for output formats that do not support graphics, and thus ought to contain either a "line art" variant of the graphics, or otherwise prose that describes the included image in sufficient detail. Note that RFCs occasionally are published with enhanced diagrams; a recent example is [RFC5598]. This element appears as child element of: <figure> (Section 2.18), and <section> (Section 2.38). Content model: Text 2.5.1. 'align' attribute Controls whether the artwork appears left (default), centered, or right. Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 10] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 Allowed values: o "left" (default) o "center" o "right" 2.5.2. 'alt' attribute Alternative text description of the artwork (not just the caption). 2.5.3. 'height' attribute The suggested height of the graphics included using the "src" attribute. This attribute is format-dependent and ought to be avoided. When generating HTML output, current implementations copy the attribute "as is". For other output formats it is usually ignored. 2.5.4. 'name' attribute A filename suitable for the contents (such as for extraction to a local file). This attribute generally isn't used for document generation, but it can be helpful for other kinds of tools (such as automated syntax checkers which work by extracting the source code). 2.5.5. 'src' attribute The URI of a graphics file. Note that this can be a "data" URI ([RFC2397]) as well, in which case the graphics file essentially is in-lined. 2.5.6. 'type' attribute Specifies the type of the artwork. The value of this attribute is free text with certain values designated as preferred. A processor might add type-specific formatting to artwork with the preferred values in the non-canonical output formats. If the processor encounters a value for "type" that is not one of the preferred values, it can issue a warning. The beginning list of preferred values are: Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 11] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 o abnf o ascii-art o asn.1 o bash o c++ o c o call-flow o hex-dump o mib o perl o python The RFC Editor will mainatin a complete list of the preferred values on its web site, and that list is expected to be updated over time. Thus, a consumer of v3 XML should not cause a failure when it encounters an unexpected type. 2.5.7. 'width' attribute The suggested width of the graphics included using the "src" attribute. This attribute is format-dependent and ought to be avoided. When generating HTML output, current implementations copy the attribute "as is". For other output formats it is usually ignored. 2.5.8. 'xml:lang' attribute Allows specification of the language used. This is sometimes useful for renderers which display different fonts for CJK characters. 2.5.9. 'xml:space' attribute Determines whitespace handling. "preserve" is both the default value and the only meaningful setting anyway (because that's what the <artwork> element is for). Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 12] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 See also Section 2.10 of [XML]. Allowed values: o "default" o "preserve" (default) 2.6. <author> Provides information about a document author. The <author> elements contained within the document's <front> element are used to fill the boilerplate, and also to generate the "Author's Address" section (see Section 4.12 of [RFCSTYLE]). Note that an "author" can also be just an organization (by not specifying any of the name attributes, but adding the <organization> child element). Furthermore, the "role" attribute can be used to mark an author as "editor". This is reflected both on the front page and in bibliographical references. Note that this specification does not define a precise meaning for the term "editor". See Section "Authors vs. Contributors" of [RFCPOLICY] for more information. This element appears as child element of: <front> (Section 2.20). Content model: In this order: 1. One optional <organization> element (Section 2.28) 2. One optional <address> element (Section 2.2) 2.6.1. 'fullname' attribute The full name (used in the automatically generated "Author's Address" section). 2.6.2. 'initials' attribute Author initials (used on the front page and in references). Initials should be provided as a whitespace separated list of pairs Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 13] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 of a letter and a dot. 2.6.3. 'role' attribute Specifies the role the author had in creating the document. Allowed values: o "editor" 2.6.4. 'surname' attribute The author's surname. 2.6.5. 'xml:lang' attribute Allows specification of the language used. This is sometimes useful for renderers which display different fonts for CJK characters. 2.7. <b> Causes the text to be displayed in a bold font. This element appears as child element of: <annotation> (Section 2.3), <c> (Section 2.9), <i> (Section 2.21), <li> (Section 2.24), <postamble> (Section 2.32), <preamble> (Section 2.33), <t> (Section 2.41), and <tt> (Section 2.44). Content model: In any order: o Text o <xref> elements (Section 2.48) o <eref> elements (Section 2.16) o <iref> elements (Section 2.22) o <cref> elements (Section 2.13) o <tt> elements (Section 2.44) o <i> elements (Section 2.21) Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 14] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 2.8. <back> Contains the "back" part of the document: the references and appendices. This element appears as child element of: <rfc> (Section 2.37). Content model: In this order: 1. Optional <references> elements (Section 2.35) 2. Optional <section> elements (Section 2.38) 2.9. <c> Provides the content of a cell in a table. This element appears as child element of: <texttable> (Section 2.42). Content model: In any order: o Text o <xref> elements (Section 2.48) o <eref> elements (Section 2.16) o <iref> elements (Section 2.22) o <cref> elements (Section 2.13) o <tt> elements (Section 2.44) o <b> elements (Section 2.7) o <i> elements (Section 2.21) 2.10. <city> Gives the city name in a postal address. This element appears as child element of: <postal> (Section 2.30). Content model: only text content. Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 15] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 2.11. <code> Gives the postal region code. This element appears as child element of: <postal> (Section 2.30). Content model: only text content. 2.12. <country> Gives the country in a postal address. This element appears as child element of: <postal> (Section 2.30). Content model: only text content. 2.13. <cref> Represents a comment. Comments can be used in a document while it is work-in-progress. They usually appear either inline and visually highlighted, at the end of the document (depending on file format and settings of the formatter), or not at all (when generating an RFC). This element appears as child element of: <annotation> (Section 2.3), <b> (Section 2.7), <c> (Section 2.9), <i> (Section 2.21), <li> (Section 2.24), <postamble> (Section 2.32), <preamble> (Section 2.33), <t> (Section 2.41), <tt> (Section 2.44), and <ttcol> (Section 2.45). Content model: only text content. 2.13.1. 'anchor' attribute Document-wide unique identifier for this comment. The processor will auto-generate an identifier when none is given. The value needs to be a valid XML "Name" (Section 2.3 of [XML]). 2.13.2. 'source' attribute Holds the "source" of a comment, such as the name or the initials of the person who made the comment. Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 16] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 2.14. <date> Provides information about the publication date. Note that this element is used both for the boilerplate of the document being produced, and also inside bibliographic references. In the first case, it defines the publication date, which, when producing Internet-Drafts, will be used for computing the expiration date (see Section 8 of [IDGUIDE]). When "year", "month" or "day" are left out, the processor will attempt to use the current system date if the attributes that are specified do match the system date. Note that month names need to match the full (English) month name ("January", "February", "March", "April", "May, "June", "July", "August", "September", "October", "November", or "December") in order for expiration calculations to work (some implementations might support additional formats, though). In the second case, the date information will be embedded as-is into the reference text. Therefore, also vague dates ("ca. 2000"), date ranges, and so on, are allowed. This element appears as child element of: <front> (Section 2.20). Content model: this element does not have any contents. 2.14.1. 'day' attribute Day of publication. 2.14.2. 'month' attribute Month of publication. 2.14.3. 'year' attribute Year of publication. 2.15. <email> Provides an email address. The value is expected to be the scheme-specific part of a "mailto" URI (so does not include the prefix "mailto:"). See Section 2 of [RFC6068] for details. This element appears as child element of: <address> (Section 2.2). Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 17] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 Content model: only text content. 2.16. <eref> Represents an "external" link (as specified in the "target" attribute). If the element has text content, that content will be used. Otherwise, the value of the target attribute will be inserted in angle brackets ([RFC3986], Appendix C). This element appears as child element of: <annotation> (Section 2.3), <b> (Section 2.7), <c> (Section 2.9), <i> (Section 2.21), <li> (Section 2.24), <postamble> (Section 2.32), <preamble> (Section 2.33), <t> (Section 2.41), <tt> (Section 2.44), and <ttcol> (Section 2.45). Content model: only text content. 2.16.1. 'target' attribute (mandatory) URI of the link target (see Section 3 of [RFC3986]). 2.17. <facsimile> Represents the phone number of a fax machine.

'width' attribute Duplicates functionality available on <artwork>; avoid it. 2.19. <format> Provides a link to an additional format variant for a reference. Note that these additional links are neither used in published RFCs, nor supported by all tools. If the goal is to provide a single URI for a reference, the "target" attribute on <reference> can be used instead. This element appears as child element of: <reference> (Section 2.34). Content model: this element does not have any contents. 2.19.1. 'octets' attribute Octet length of linked-to document. 2.19.2. 'target' attribute URI of document. [[anchor3: Why is this optional?]] 2.19.3. 'type' attribute (mandatory) The type of the linked-to document, such as "TXT", "HTML", or "PDF". 2.20. <front> Represent the "front matter": metadata (such as author information), abstract, and additional notes.

Index entries can be either single items (when just the "item" attribute is given) or nested items (by specifying "subitem" as well). For instance: <iref item="Grammar" subitem="item"/> will produce an index entry for "Grammar, item". This element appears as child element of: <annotation> (Section 2.3), <b> (Section 2.7), <c> (Section 2.9), <figure> (Section 2.18), <i> (Section 2.21), <li> (Section 2.24), <postamble> (Section 2.32), <preamble> (Section 2.33), <section> (Section 2.38), <t> (Section 2.41), <tt> (Section 2.44), and <ttcol> (Section 2.45). Content model: this element does not have any contents. 2.22.1. 'item' attribute (mandatory) The item to include. 2.22.2. 'primary' attribute Setting this to "true" declares the occurrence as "primary", which might cause it to be highlighted in the index. Allowed values: o "true" o "false" (default) 2.22.3. 'subitem' attribute The subitem to include. 2.23. <keyword> Specifies a keyword applicable to the document. Note that each element should only contain a single keyword; for multiple keywords, the element can simply be repeated. Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 22] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 Keywords are used both in the RFC Index and in the metadata of generated document formats. This element appears as child element of: <front> (Section 2.20). Content model: only text content. 2.24. <li> Specifies an item in a list. The content model for <li> is that it either contains free text (which can contain non-blick elements such as <b>, <cref>), or it contains one or more <t> elements. In the latter case, having more than one <t> element causes breaks but without triggering another label. This element appears as child element of: <list> (Section 2.25). Content model: In any order: o Text o <t> elements (Section 2.41) o <xref> elements (Section 2.48) o <eref> elements (Section 2.16) o <iref> elements (Section 2.22) o <cref> elements (Section 2.13) o <tt> elements (Section 2.44) o <b> elements (Section 2.7) 2.24.1. 'anchor' attribute Document-wide unique identifier for this list item. 2.24.2. 'hangtext' attribute In a list whose style is "hanging", the "hangText" attribute of <li> gives the term that will be at the left margin. In a list whose style is not "hanging", the processor will return an error. Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 23] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 2.24.3. 'term' attribute In a list whose style is "dictionary", the "term" attribute of <li> gives the term being defined. In a list whose style is not "dictionary", the processor will return an error. 2.25. <list> Delineates a text list. Each list item is represented by a <li> element. This element appears as child element of: <section> (Section 2.38), and <t> (Section 2.41). Content model: One or more <li> elements (Section 2.24) 2.25.1. 'anchor' attribute Document-wide unique identifier for this list. 2.25.2. 'counter' attribute This attribute holds a token that serves as an identifier for a counter. The intended use is continuation of lists. Note that this attribute functions only when the style attribute is using the "format..." syntax (Section 2.25.4); otherwise, it is ignored. 2.25.3. 'format' attribute The format for the labels in this list. The "format" attribute only applies to lists whose "style" is "letters", "numbers", and "symbols". If the "format" attribute is given for a list with any other "style", the processor will issue an error. The default format for "letters" is "%c". The default format for "numbers" is "%d". The default format for "symbols" is "o". [[anchor4: That last one is almost certainly wrong and this needs to be specified better in the style="format" part as well.]] 2.25.4. 'style' attribute This attribute is used to control the display of a list. Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 24] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 The value of this attribute is inherited by any nested lists that do not have this attribute set. It may be set to: "empty" (or not set) For unlabeled list items; it can also be used for indentation purposes (this is the default value). "dictionary" For lists that have a term and a definition. The term is given in the <li> element in the "term" attribute. "hanging" For lists where the items are labeled with a piece of text. "letters" For ordered lists using letters as labels (lowercase letters followed by a period; after "z", it rolls over to a two-letter format). For nested lists, processors usually flip between uppercase and lowercase. "numbers" For ordered lists using numbers as labels. "symbols" For unordered (bulleted) lists. The style of the bullets is chosen automatically be the processor (some implementations allow overriding the default using a processing instruction). And, finally: "format ..." For lists with customized labels, consisting of fixed text and an item counter in various formats. The value is a free-form text that allows counter values to be inserted using a "percent-letter" format. For instance, "[REQ%d]" generates labels of the form "[REQ1]", where "%d" inserts the item number as decimal number. Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 25] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 The following formats are supported: %c lowercase letters (a, b, c, etc.) %C uppercase letters (A, B, C, etc.) %d decimal numbers (1, 2, 3, etc.) %i lowercase Roman numerals (i, ii, iii, etc.) %I uppercase Roman numerals (I, II, III, etc.) %% represents a percent sign Other formats are reserved for future use.

This element appears as child element of: <rfc> (Section 2.37). Content model: One or more <section> elements (Section 2.38) 2.27. <note> Creates an unnumbered section that appears after the abstract. Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 27] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 It is usually used for additional information to reviewers (working group information, mailing list, ...), or for additional publication information such as "IESG Notes". This element appears as child element of: <front> (Section 2.20). Content model: One or more <t> elements (Section 2.41) 2.27.1. 'title' attribute (mandatory) The title of the note. 2.28. <organization> Specifies the affiliation of an author. This information appears in both the "Author's Address" section and on the front page ([RFCSTYLE], Section 4.1.1). If the value is long, an abbreviated variant can be specified in the "abbrev" attribute. This element appears as child element of: <author> (Section 2.6). Content model: only text content. 2.28.1. 'abbrev' attribute Abbreviated variant. 2.29. <phone> Represents a phone number. The value is expected to be the scheme-specific part of a "tel" URI (so does not include the prefix "tel:"), using the "global numbers" syntax. See Section 3 of [RFC3966] for details. This element appears as child element of: <address> (Section 2.2). Content model: only text content. 2.30. <postal> Contains optional child elements providing postal information. These elements will be displayed in an order that is processor-specific. Thus, a postal address should probably contain only a set of <street>, <city>, <region>, <code>, and <country> elements, or only a Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 28] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 single <postalbody> element, but not both. This element appears as child element of: <address> (Section 2.2). Content model: In any order: o <street> elements (Section 2.40) o <city> elements (Section 2.10) o <region> elements (Section 2.36) o <code> elements (Section 2.11) o <country> elements (Section 2.12) o <postalbody> elements (Section 2.31) 2.31. <postalbody> A method for presenting a postal address without using <street>, <city>, <region>, <code>, and <country> elements. Processors will maintain horizontal whitespace and line breaks in the text of the <postalbody> element. This element appears as child element of: <postal> (Section 2.30). Content model: only text content. 2.32. <postamble> Gives text that appears at the bottom of a figure or table. This element appears as child element of: <figure> (Section 2.18), and <texttable> (Section 2.42). Content model: In any order: o Text o <xref> elements (Section 2.48) o <eref> elements (Section 2.16) Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 29] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 o <iref> elements (Section 2.22) o <cref> elements (Section 2.13) o <tt> elements (Section 2.44) o <b> elements (Section 2.7) o <i> elements (Section 2.21) 2.33. <preamble> Gives text that appears at the top of a figure or table. This element appears as child element of: <figure> (Section 2.18), and <texttable> (Section 2.42). Content model: In any order: o Text o <xref> elements (Section 2.48) o <eref> elements (Section 2.16) o <iref> elements (Section 2.22) o <cref> elements (Section 2.13) o <tt> elements (Section 2.44) o <b> elements (Section 2.7) o <i> elements (Section 2.21) 2.34. <reference> Represents a bibliographical reference. The reference can be expressed in one of two ways: As a <front> element plus optional <seriesInfo>, <format>, and <annotation> elements. As a pair of attributes: "series" and "document". Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 30] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 In the latter method, the document does not need to contain any specifics for the reference other than a simple specification of the reference. For example, a refernence to RFC 6068 is given as either: <reference anchor="RFC6068"> <front> <title>The 'mailto' URI Scheme or The values for the "series" attribute are: +----------+------------------------+-------------------------------+ | Value | Value for "document | Example | | for | | | | "series" | | | +----------+------------------------+-------------------------------+ | rfc | number | "6068" | | fyi | number | "7" | | id | file name | "draft-hoffman-xml2rfc" | | bcp | comma-separated list | "79,3979,4879" | | | of numbers; the first | | | | number is the BCP | | | | number and the others | | | | are the RFCs that make | | | | up the BCP | | | std | comma-separated list | "69,5730,5731,5732,5733,5734" | | | of numbers; the first | | | | number is the STD | | | | number and the others | | | | are the RFCs that make | | | | up the STD | | | 3gpp | TBD | "TBD" | | ansi | document name and year | "T1-102.1987" | | ccitt | document name and year | "X690.2002" | | fips | document name and year | "500-166.1989" | | ieee | document name and year | "802-11H.2003" | Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 31] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 | iso | document name and year | "8859-6.1988" | | itu | document name and year | "X509.2000" | | nist | document name and year | "500-214.1993" | | pkcs | document name and year | "9.1993" | | w3c | document name (and | "TBD" | | | year?) | | +----------+------------------------+-------------------------------+ The processor needs to make sure that exactly zero or one of "series" is given. It has to do a sanity check on the "document" value to be sure that the value is valid for the "series". If the "series" value is "bcp" or "std", the processor needs to check if the list in the "document" list matches the present or a previous set of values for the BCP or STD. This element appears as child element of: (Section 2.35). Content model: In this order: 1. Optional elements (Section 2.20) 2. Optional elements (Section 2.39) 3. Optional elements (Section 2.19) 4. Optional elements (Section 2.3) 2.34.1. 'anchor' attribute Document-wide unique identifier for this reference. Usually, this will be used both to "label" the reference in the references section, and as an identifier in links to this reference entry. The value needs to be a valid XML "Name" (Section 2.3 of [XML]). 2.34.2. 'document' attribute The document or documents that make up a reference, as described earlier in this section. 2.34.3. 'series' attribute The series from which the referred-to document comes from, as described earlier in this section. Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 32] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 2.34.4. 'target' attribute Holds the URI for the reference. Note that depending on the element, a URI might not be needed, nor desirable, as it can be automatically generated (for instance, for RFCs). 2.35. Contains a set of bibliographical references. In the early days of the RFC series, there was only one "References" section per RFC. This convention was later changed to group references into two sets, "Normative" and "Informative"; see item x of Section 4.8.5 of [RFCSTYLE]). This vocabulary supports the split with the "title" attribute. This element appears as child element of: (Section 2.8). Content model: One or more elements (Section 2.34) 2.35.1. 'title' attribute Provides the title for the References section (defaulting to "References"). In general, the title should be either "Normative References" or "Informative References". 2.36. Provides the region name in a postal address. This element appears as child element of: (Section 2.30). Content model: only text content. 2.37. This is the root element of the xml2rfc vocabulary. Processors distinguish between RFC mode ("number" attribute being present) and Internet-Draft mode ("docName" attribute being present): it is invalid to specify both. Setting neither "number" nor "docName" can be useful for producing other types of document but is Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 33] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 out-of-scope for this specification. Content model: In this order: 1. One element (Section 2.20) 2. One element (Section 2.26) 3. One optional element (Section 2.8) 2.37.1. 'category' attribute Document category (see Appendix A.1). Allowed values: o "std" o "bcp" o "info" o "exp" o "historic" 2.37.2. 'consensus' attribute Affects the generated boilerplate. See [RFC5741] for more information. Allowed values: o "no" o "yes" 2.37.3. 'docName' attribute For Internet-Drafts, this specifies the draft name (which appears below the title). Note that the file extension is not part of the draft, so in general it should end with the current draft number ("-", plus two digits). Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 34] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 Furthermore, it is good practice to disambiguate current editor copies from submitted drafts (for instance, by replacing the draft number with the string "latest"). See Section 7 of [IDGUIDE] for further information. 2.37.4. 'ipr' attribute Represents the Intellectual Property status of the document. See Appendix A.2 for details. Allowed values: o "full2026" o "noDerivativeWorks2026" o "none" o "full3667" o "noModification3667" o "noDerivatives3667" o "full3978" o "noModification3978" o "noDerivatives3978" o "trust200811" o "noModificationTrust200811" o "noDerivativesTrust200811" o "trust200902" o "noModificationTrust200902" o "noDerivativesTrust200902" o "pre5378Trust200902" Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 35] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 2.37.5. 'iprExtract' attribute Identifies a Section within the document for which extraction "as-is" is explicitly allowed (only relevant for historic values of the "ipr" attribute). 2.37.6. 'number' attribute The number of the RFC to be produced. 2.37.7. 'obsoletes' attribute A comma-separated list of RFC numbers or Internet-Draft names. 2.37.8. 'seriesNo' attribute When producing a document within document series (such as "STD"): the number within that series. 2.37.9. 'submissionType' attribute The document stream. See Section 2 of [RFC5741] for details. Allowed values: o "IETF" (default) o "IAB" o "IRTF" o "independent" 2.37.10. 'updates' attribute A comma-separated list of RFC numbers or Internet-Draft names. 2.37.11. 'xml:lang' attribute The natural language used in the document (defaults to "en"). See Section 2.12 of [XML] for more information. Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 36] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 2.38.
    Represents a section (when inside a element) or an appendix (when inside a element). Sub-sections are created by nesting
    elements inside

Allowed values: o "yes" o "no" (default) 2.38.4. 'title' attribute (mandatory) The title of the section. 2.38.5. 'toc' attribute Determines whether the section is included in the Table Of Contents. [[anchor5: Need to consider inheritance.]] Allowed values: o "include" o "exclude" o "default" (default) 2.39. Specifies the document series in which this document appears, and also specifies an identifier within that series. This element appears as child element of: (Section 2.34). Content model: this element does not have any contents. 2.39.1. 'name' attribute (mandatory) The name of the series. The following names trigger specific processing (such as for auto- generating links, and adding descriptions such as "work in progress"): "BCP", "FYI", "Internet-Draft", "RFC", and "STD". Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 38] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 2.39.2. 'value' attribute (mandatory) The identifier within the series specified by the "name" attribute. For BCPs, FYIs, RFCs, and STDs this is the number within the series. For Internet-Drafts, it is the full draft name (ending with the two- digit version number). 2.40. Provides a street address.

'anchor' attribute Document-wide unique identifier for this paragraph. The value needs to be a valid XML "Name" (Section 2.3 of [XML]). 2.41.2. 'cite' attribute A citation for a block quote. It is an error to use this attribute in a element that does not have style="blockquote". *** TBD: is this meant to be an anchor to a reference, a URL, or free text? *** 2.41.3. 'style' attribute The style for the paragraph. Specifying a style will cause a change in the formatting of the paragraph in the non-canonical formats generated by a processor. The default value is "normal". Other values are "blockquote" for a block quotation and "note" for regular text that is meant to be indented from the left margin. 2.42. Contains a table, consisting of an optional preamble, a header line, rows, and an optional postamble. The number of columns in the table is determined by the number of elements. The number of rows in the table is determined by the number of elements divided by the number of columns. There is no requirement that the number of elements be evenly divisible by the number of columns. This element appears as child element of:
    (Section 2.38). Content model: In this order: 1. One optional element (Section 2.33) 2. One or more elements (Section 2.45) 3. Optional elements (Section 2.9) 4. One optional element (Section 2.32) Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 40] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 2.42.1. 'align' attribute Determines the horizontal alignment of the table. Allowed values: o "left" o "center" (default) o "right" 2.42.2. 'anchor' attribute Document-wide unique identifier for this table. The value needs to be a valid XML "Name" (Section 2.3 of [XML]). 2.42.3. 'style' attribute Selects which borders should be drawn, where o "all" means borders around all table cells, o "full" is like "all" except no horizontal lines between table rows (except below the column titles), o "headers" adds just a separator between column titles and rows, and o "none" means no borders at all. Allowed values: o "all" o "none" o "headers" o "full" (default) 2.42.4. 'suppress-title' attribute [[element.texttable.attribute.suppress-title.missing: attribute description missing]] Allowed values: Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 41] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 o "true" o "false" (default) 2.42.5. 'title' attribute [[element.texttable.attribute.title.missing: attribute description missing]] 2.43. Represents the document title. When this element appears in the <front> element of the current document, the title might also appear in page headers or footers. If it's long (~40 characters), the "abbrev" attribute is used to specified an abbreviated variant. This element appears as child element of: <front> (Section 2.20). Content model: only text content. 2.43.1. 'abbrev' attribute Specifies an abbreviated variant of the document title. 2.44. <tt> Causes the text to be displayed in a constant-width font. This element appears as child element of: <annotation> (Section 2.3), <b> (Section 2.7), <c> (Section 2.9), <i> (Section 2.21), <li> (Section 2.24), <postamble> (Section 2.32), <preamble> (Section 2.33), and <t> (Section 2.41). Content model: In any order: o Text o <xref> elements (Section 2.48) o <eref> elements (Section 2.16) o <iref> elements (Section 2.22) Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 42] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 o <cref> elements (Section 2.13) o <b> elements (Section 2.7) o <i> elements (Section 2.21) 2.45. <ttcol> Contains a column heading in a table. This element appears as child element of: <texttable> (Section 2.42). Content model: In any order: o <xref> elements (Section 2.48) o <eref> elements (Section 2.16) o <iref> elements (Section 2.22) o <cref> elements (Section 2.13) o Text 2.45.1. 'align' attribute Determines the horizontal alignment within the table column. Allowed values: o "left" (default) o "center" o "right" 2.45.2. 'width' attribute The desired column width (as integer 0..100 followed by "%"). 2.46. <uri> Contains a web address associated with the author. The contents should be a valid URI (see Section 3 of [RFC3986]). Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 43] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 This element appears as child element of: <address> (Section 2.2). Content model: only text content. 2.47. <workgroup> This element is used to specify the Working Group the document originates from, if any. The recommended format is the official name of the Working Group (with some capitalization). In Internet-Drafts, this is used in the upper left corner of the boilerplate, replacing the "Network Working Group" string. Formatting software can append the words "Working Group" or "Research Group", depending on the "submissionType" property on the <rfc> element (Section 2.37.9). This element appears as child element of: <front> (Section 2.20). Content model: only text content. 2.48. <xref> Inserts a reference to a different part of a document. The generated text depends on whether the <xref> is empty (in which case the processor will try to generate a meaningful text fragment), and the nature of the referenced document part. Any element that allows the "anchor" attribute can be referenced, however there are restrictions with respect to the text content being generated. For instance, a <t> can be a reference target, however, because paragraphs are not (visibly) numbered, the author will have to make sure that the prose is sufficient for a reader to understand what is being referred to. [[anchor6: This needs to be expanded with examples and with a discussion how the autogenerated text differs when <xref> is not empty]] This element appears as child element of: <annotation> (Section 2.3), <b> (Section 2.7), <c> (Section 2.9), <i> (Section 2.21), <li> (Section 2.24), <postamble> (Section 2.32), <preamble> (Section 2.33), <t> (Section 2.41), <tt> (Section 2.44), and <ttcol> (Section 2.45). Content model: only text content. Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 44] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 2.48.1. 'format' attribute This attribute is used to control the format of the generated reference text. "counter" Inserts a counter, such as the number of a section, figure, or table. "default" Inserts a text fragment that describes the referenced part completely, such as "Section 2", "Table 4", or "[XML]". "none" There will be no auto-generated text. "title" Inserts a title for the referenced element (usually obtained from the referenced element's "title" attribute; some processors also use the <title> child element or a <reference> target). Allowed values: o "counter" o "title" o "none" o "default" (default) 2.48.2. 'pageno' attribute Unused. It's unclear what the purpose of this attribute is; processors seem to ignore it and it never was documented. Allowed values: o "true" o "false" (default) Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 45] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 2.48.3. 'target' attribute (mandatory) Identifies the document component being referenced. The value needs to match the value of the "anchor" attribute of another element in the document. 3. Special Unicode Code Points [[anchor7: Explain those code points where the processors implement something special, such as "nbsp".]] 4. Internationalization Considerations This format is based on [XML], thus does not have any issues representing arbitrary Unicode [UNICODE] characters in text content. However, the current canonical RFC format is restricted to US-ASCII [USASCII] characters ([RFC2223], Section 3). Future versions are likely to relax this role, and it is expected that the vocabulary will be extended so that US-ACSII alternatives can be provided when that makes sense (for instance, in contact information). 5. Security Considerations [[anchor8: This section is likely incomplete.]] The "name" attribute on the <artwork> element (Section 2.5.4) can be used to derive a filename for saving to a local file system. Trusting this kind of information without pre-processing is a known security risk; see Section 4.3 of [RFC6266] for more information. Furthermore, all security considerations related to XML processing are relevant as well (see Section 7 of [RFC3470]). 6. IANA Considerations 6.1. Internet Media Type Registration IANA maintains the registry of Internet media types [BCP13] at <http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types>. This document serves as the specification for the Internet media type "application/rfc+xml". The following is to be registered with IANA. Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 46] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 Type name: application Subtype name: rfc+xml Required parameters: There are no required parameters. Optional parameters: "charset": This parameter has identical semantics as the charset parameter of the "application/xml" media type specified in [RFC3023]. Encoding considerations: Identical to those of "application/xml" as described in Section 3.2 of [RFC3023]. Security considerations: As defined in Section 5. In addition, as this media type uses the "+xml" convention, it inherits the security considerations described in Section 10 of [RFC3023]. Interoperability considerations: N/A Published specification: This specification. Applications that use this media type: Applications that either transform xml2rfc to output formats such as plain text or HTML, plus additional analysis tools. Fragment identifier considerations: The "anchor" attribute is used for assigning document-wide unique identifiers that can be uses as shorthand pointers, as described in Section 2.8 of [XPOINTER]. Additional information: Deprecated alias names for this type: None. Magic number(s): As specified for "application/xml" in Section 3.2 of [RFC3023]. File extension(s): .xml Macintosh file type code(s): TEXT Person & email address to contact for further information: See Authors Section. Intended usage: COMMON Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 47] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 Restrictions on usage: N/A Author: See Authors Section. Change controller: RFC Series Editor (rse@rfc-editor.org) 7. Acknowledgments Thanks to everybody who reviewed this document and provided feedback and/or specification text.

Latest version available at <http://www.w3.org/TR/xptr-framework/>. Appendix A. Front Page Generation A.1. The /rfc/@category Attribute For RFCs, the category determines the "maturity level" (see Section 4 of [RFC2026]). The allowed values are "std" for "Standards Track", "bcp" for "BCP", "info" for "Informational", "exp" for "Experimental", and "historic" for - surprise - "Historic". For Internet-Drafts, the category attribute is not needed, but will appear on the front page as "Intended Status". Supplying this information can be useful to reviewers. A.2. The /rfc/@ipr Attribute This attribute value can take a long list of values, each of which describes an IPR policy for the document. This attribute's values are not the result of a grand plan, but remain simply for historic reasons. Of these values, only a few are currently in use; all others are supported by the various tools for backwards compatibility with old source files. Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 50] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 Note: some variations of the boilerplate are selected based on the document's date; therefore it is important to specify the "year", "month" and "day" attributes of the <date> element when archiving the XML source of an Internet-Draft on the day of submission. Disclaimer: THIS ONLY PROVIDES IMPLEMENTATION INFORMATION. IF YOU NEED LEGAL ADVICE, PLEASE CONTACT A LAWYER. For further information, refer to <http://trustee.ietf.org/docs/IETF-Copyright-FAQ.pdf>. For the current "Status Of This Memo" text, the submissionType attribute determines whether a statement about "Code Components" is inserted (which is the case for the value "IETF", which is the default). Other values, such as "independent", suppress this part of the text. A.2.1. Current Values: '*trust200902' The name for these values refers to the "IETF TRUST Legal Provisions Relating to IETF Documents", sometimes simply called the "TLP, that went into effect on February 15, 2009 ([TLP2.0]). Updates to this document were published on September 12, 2009 ([TLP3.0]) and on December 28, 2009 ([TLP4.0]), modifying the license for code components (see <http://trustee.ietf.org/license-info/> for further information). The actual text is located in Section 6 ("Text To Be Included in IETF Documents") of these documents.

It produces the text in Sections 6.a and 6.b of the TLP. A.2.1.2. noModificationTrust200902 This produces additional text from Section 6.c.i of the TLP: Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 51] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 This document may not be modified, and derivative works of it may not be created, except to format it for publication as an RFC or to translate it into languages other than English. Note: this clause is incompatible with RFCs that are published on the Standards Track. A.2.1.3. noDerivativesTrust200902 This produces the additional text from Section 6.c.ii of the TLP: This document may not be modified, and derivative works of it may not be created, and it may not be published except as an Internet- Draft. Note: this clause is incompatible with RFCs. A.2.1.4. pre5378Trust200902 This produces the additional text from Section 6.c.iii of the TLP, frequently called the "pre-5378 escape clause": This document may contain material from IETF Documents or IETF Contributions published or made publicly available before November 10, 2008. The person(s) controlling the copyright in some of this material may not have granted the IETF Trust the right to allow modifications of such material outside the IETF Standards Process. Without obtaining an adequate license from the person(s) controlling the copyright in such materials, this document may not be modified outside the IETF Standards Process, and derivative works of it may not be created outside the IETF Standards Process, except to format it for publication as an RFC or to translate it into languages other than English. See Section 4 of <http://trustee.ietf.org/docs/IETF-Copyright-FAQ.pdf> for further information about when to use this value. Note: this text appears under "Copyright Notice", unless the document was published before November 2009, in which case it appears under "Status Of This Memo". A.2.2. Historic Values A.2.2.1. Historic Values: '*trust200811' The attribute values "trust200811", "noModificationTrust200811" and "noDerivativesTrust200811" are similar to their "trust200902" Hoffman Expires August 18, 2014 [Page 52] Internet-Draft XML2RFCv3 February 2014 counterparts, except that they use text specified in <http:// trustee.ietf.org/license-info/archive/ IETF-Trust-License-Policy_11-10-08.pdf>. A.2.2.2. Historic Values: '*3978' The attribute values "full3978", "noModification3978" and "noDerivatives3978" are similar to their counterparts above, except that they use text specified in RFC 3978 (March 2005). A.2.2.3. Historic Values: '*3667' The attribute values "full3667", "noModification3667" and "noDerivatives3667" are similar to their counterparts above, except that they use text specified in RFC 3667 (February 2004). A.2.2.4. Historic Values: '*2026' The attribute values "full2026" and "noDerivativeWorks2026" are similar to their counterparts above, except that they use text specified in RFC 2026 (October 1996). The special value "none" was also used back then, and denied the IETF any rights beyond publication as Internet-Draft. Appendix B.
