I'm looking at
http://info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/Protocols/HTTP/Request.html "HTTP: The
Request" under "HTTP: A protocol for networked information".  

In the line:

 FullRequest       =     Method UR ProtocolVersion CrLf
                                ^^

UR really looks like it should be <uri> or possibly URI.

1. Is this just a bug in the spec?
2. Is this the right place to report such bugs?
3. Is there a more uptodate spec?

Thanks!
