Page 23: Signature:

	The sentence "Although the field is depicted as 32-bit aligned
        for convenience, the size may be shorter or longer, as indicated
	by its integral Size field."  appears here and several other places,
        and is confusing to me.  The first clause talks about alignment, and
        the second clause talks about length.  It would be clearer to talk
        about these separately, as in:
		"The field may be any integral number of octets in length,
                as indicated by its Size field.  It does not need to have
                any particular alignment (the 32-bit alignment shown in
                the figure is merely for convenience in the illustration)."
