Dear members of the occi-wg,

    In the federated clouds working group, we are having a discussion 
about the interpretation of the HTTP rendering of the OCCI standard 
(document GFD.185, http://ogf.org/documents/GFD.185.pdf)

    Our doubt is the following.

    In several examples in the document, for examples in section 3.4, 
page 8 or in section 3.5.1, page 20, we see Category: elements laid out 
in multiple lines.

    Our doubt is if this examples are normative, and thus it is 
acceptable to write them in multiple lines, or if this had been done 
just for readability, and the answers from the OCCI server should 
actually lay out a Category in a single line.

    In the interest of interoperability among our different 
implementations, can you please clarify this point?

Thanks in advance,
    On behalf of the Federated Clouds Working Group
