Inconsistent wording of Content-Length

Jim,

The descriptions of Content-Length in rev-00 are slightly out of sync. I
propose two small changes to 4.4 and 14.14:

Section 4.4

	- If a Content-Length header field (section 14.14) is present,
	  its value in bytes represents the length of the message-body.

should say

	- If a Content-Length header field (section 14.14) is present,
	  its decimal value in OCTETs represents the length of the
	  message-body.

Later in 4.4

	When a Content-Length is given in a message where a message-body
	is allowed, its field value MUST exactly match the number of
	OCTETs in the message-body. HTTP/1.1 user agents MUST notify
	the user when an invalid length is received and detected.

10.2.7

	- Either a Content-Range header field (section 14.17)
	indicating the range included with this response, or a
multipart/byteranges Content-Type including Content-Range
	fields for each part. If multipart/byteranges is not used,
	the Content-Length header field in the response MUST match
	the actual number of OCTETs transmitted in the message-body.

14.14

	The Content-Length entity-header field indicates the size of
	the message-body, in decimal number of octets, sent to the
	recipient or, in the case of the HEAD method, the size of
	the entity-body that would have been sent had the request
	been a GET.

should say

	The Content-Length entity-header field indicates the size of
	the message-body, in decimal number of OCTETs, sent to the
	recipient or, in the case of the HEAD method, the size of
	the entity-body that would have been sent had the request
	been a GET.
