The following errata report has been submitted for RFC4975,
"The Message Session Relay Protocol (MSRP)".

--------------------------------------
Type: Technical
Reported by: Dennis Noordsij <[email-masked]>

Section: 9

Original Text
-------------
ext-header = hname ":" SP hval CRLF

Corrected Text
--------------
ext-header = hname ":" SP hval

Notes
-----
The rule:

  headers = To-Path CRLF From-Path CRLF 1*( header CRLF )

already suffixes every header with a CRLF. The result is that the extension headers are followed by 2 CRLFs, introducing empty lines inside the header segment. This appears to be unintended, since none of the other headers have a terminating CRLF in their production rules, only the ext-header.
