If the 2119 keywords included the any caps versions, eg "must" and "Must" and...etc, you'd have to avoid using those keywords in your english to not invoke the definitions in rfc2119 everywhere. If it is limited to the all caps versions, eg "MUST", things get a bit easier. I don't think the author of 2119 intended for everyone to watch their language. Ketil
