Subject: Correction to RFC 3454 "Preparation of Internationalized Strings (stringprep)"

Dear Sirs,

I would like to report a small error in RFC 3454:

Appendix C says: 

"C. Prohibition tables

   The tables in this appendix consist of lines with one prohibited code
   point per line.  The format of the lines are the value of the code
   point, a semicolon, and a comment which is the name of the code
   point."

This is not true as the tables in this appendix consist of lines with
one prohibited code point _range_ per line.  The format of the lines
are the value of the starting code point of the range, a hyphen,
the value of the ending code point of the range, a semicolon,
and a comment which is the informal name of the range in square brackets.
If the range contains only one code point, then the hyphen and the ending
code point value are omitted, and the comment contains the name of
the code point without brackets.

Thanks and best regards,
