RFCs should provide executable test suites
I've implemented xCal and xCard formats inside the sabre/dav libraries. While testing the different RFCs against my implementation, several errata have been found. This article, first, quickly list them and, second, ask questions about how such errors can be present and how they can be easily revealed. If reading my dry humor about RFC errata is boring, the next sections are more interesting. The whole idea is: Why RFCs do not provide executable test suites?
