CAP-12-e: 8.22 MULTIPART Property ABNF

[Bruce_Kahn@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

In looking at the CAP-12-e draft I see
in Section 8.22 MULTIPART Property the following:

8.22 MULTIPART Property

   Property Name: MULTIPART
[Snip, snip]
   Formal Definition: The property is defined
by the following notation:


   name = "MULTIPART" other-params ":" text *(
"," text) CRLF

so this section is defining an ABNF
for 'name' to be used elsewhere.  But the next section 8.23
NAME Property says:

8.23 NAME Property

   Property Name: NAME
[Snip, snip]
   Formal Definition: The property is defined
by the following notation:

   name = "NAME" nameparam ":" text CRLF

which appears to define the same ABNF
value.  This is not goodness (or at least it should be using the "/="
instead of "=" if it were an extension of name)

I suspect that the ABNF under Section
8.22 just needs touching up and any references to MULTIPART need to be
santiy checked.
