Summary

  • text/3308-offset_of.md: the [zigoffsetof] link-reference definition read hhttps://ziglang.org/..., so the @offsetOf citation at line 418 rendered as a relative path instead of linking to the Zig docs. Corrected to https://.
  • Corrects misspellings in RFC prose, e.g. stablization/stablized (3389, 3424, 3502), dereferencable (3336, 3467), superceded, compatability (3637), visiblity, overriden, authoratitative (3834), ocurring (3791), possiblilities (2996), incompatibilties/incompatibilty/issused/repostory/abot (2834), Iteratable for the Dart Iterable type (3513), and Carrer for the Carrier trait (1859).
  • Removes doubled words: is is (3874, 3875), the the (3681, 3875), of of (0560, 2532, 2856, 2912), with with (1252, 3681), we we (1214), a a (1643), for for (3323), it it's (0235), and are are feware a few (3192).

Markdown only, RFC text bodies only; 75 files, 109 lines. Left alone: Rust terms (statics, inout, implementor), code identifiers, quoted text, the deliberate widnows typo example in RFC 3013, and hyphenation variants like re-use.

Rendered

The link-reference definition for `[zigoffsetof]` in text/3308-offset_of.md
read `hhttps://...`, so the citation to Zig's `@offsetOf` docs resolved as a
relative path instead of the intended URL.

Also corrects misspellings in the prose of other RFCs (e.g. `stablization`,
`dereferencable`, `superceded`, `visiblity`, `Iteratable` for Dart's
`Iterable`, `Carrer` for the `Carrier` trait) and removes doubled words such
as "is is", "of of" and "the the".
