This seems like it's probably legitimate. Does it need to be fixed in the
-bis document?
It's already fixed in the current markdown.
FYI, the XML pattern is silly. It forbids harmless stuff like leading zeros
in 01.02.03.04
and doesn't allow some exotic but valid IPv6 forms like ::ffff:12.34.56.78.
How about:
"(::ffff:)?(([01]?\d?\d|2[0-4]\d|25[0-5])\.){3}([01]?\d?\d|2[0-4]\d|25[0-5])"/>
Testing yielded a correct fix:
"(::[Ff]{4}:)?(([01]?\d?\d|2[0-4]\d|25[0-5])\.){3}([01]?\d?\d|2[0-4]\d|25[0-5])"/>
I'd agree it might have been better to allow an overly lax pattern, such as
"[0-9a-fA-F.:]+". When we (Tim and I) got to revise the grammar from Freddie's work
on docs.google.com, in March 2020, we tried and followed the style of RFC 7489. That led to
the current grammar under the comment <!-- The Internet Protocol Address from which messages
were received -->. Obviously we hadn't tested all cases. Now you (John) found a case. Why
shouldn't we fix it? Why would it be too late, since we're in WGLC? Why would it be the wrong
place?
Note: the change doesn't make the grammar stricter than it is. It makes it
slightly more relaxed.
Please take my pull request.
Best
Ale
