    Subject: a few nits on the I-D
    
    After today's WG meeting, I thought I'd mention a small number of
    things that caught my eye when reading draft-ietf-deltav-versioning-06.
    Apologies if any have already been caught or addressed.
    
    First, I was caught by the spelling of "descendent" -- I thought it
    was descendant.  Miriam-Webster claims the former is an alternative
    spelling for the latter, but the latter is clearly preferred.  Was
    this a conscious decision?
    
    2.1, 2nd sentence: must -> MUST ? 
    
    2.2: give example of SET-TARGET?
    
    2.3: hyphenate "client assigned"?
    
    Why are all the x.y.z headings followed by text w/o spacing?  Typo or
    some odd IETF requirement? e.g., 3.1.1
    
    3.2: define  "dead properties" or cross ref?
    
    3.4: mention that current time is relative to the server's locale.
    
    4.1: "has no affect" -> "has no effect" (twice)
    
    I have a couple of other things to mention, and will do so  in separate
    messages.
