@talltree @peacekeeper Which version of the ABNF specification are we claiming conformance with?

@mwherman2000 if I understand correctly, you answered your own question here? Do you think the reference to RFC5234 in the spec is clear enough?

• If yes, would you agree that this issue can be closed?
• If no, do you have a suggestion how to get better clarity on which version of the ABNF specification we are claiming conformance with?

Closing as this looks addressed in the final draft. Feel free to re-raise over at the DIDWG did-spec repo.
