Should not have a MUST in a non-normative section #7

Closed zimeon closed 6 years ago

zimeon commented 6 years ago

Currently, 6.1.1.3. Recommendations includes:

Implementations MUST prevent the creation of bags containing files which differ only in normalization form.

if this stays in the non-normative section 6 then I think it can only be a SHOULD. (Another approach would be to avoid RFC2119 words in the non-normative portion.)

Based on discussion with @johnscancella and @jkunze, agree that should be changed to SHOULD.
