Numeric references are not good style in RFCs (neither are they current style, e.g., compare RFC 7322 — while section 4.8.6 is silent about that fact, it does say References will generally appear in alphanumeric order by citation tag. […] ...and of course RFC 7322 uses the current style itself). So you do want to say (kramdown syntax): pi: symrefs: 'yes' sortrefs: 'yes’ Or, in RFCXMLv3 vernacular: <rfc ... sortRefs="true" symRefs="true” (Symrefs is true by default in RFCXMLv3, but sortrefs is not. Go figure.) Grüße, Carsten -- last-call mailing list last-call@xxxxxxxx https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/last-call
