"Extensible Prioritization Scheme for HTTP".

--------------------------------------
Type: Technical
Reported by: Mo Zanaty <mzanaty@cisco.com>

Section: 4.1

Original Text
-------------
The urgency (u) parameter value is Integer (see Section 3.3.1 of
[STRUCTURED-FIELDS]), between 0 and 7 inclusive, in descending order
of priority.

Corrected Text
--------------
The urgency (u) parameter value is Integer (see Section 3.3.1 of
[STRUCTURED-FIELDS]), between 0 and 7 inclusive, in ASCENDING order
of priority.

Notes
-----
The very next paragraph indicates ASCENDING order of priority:
"The smaller the value, the higher the precedence."
Minor nit: It is confusing and unnecessary to use "precedence" and "urgency" as aliases for "priority". Readers can be misled to think these are intended to be distinct properties rather than aliases.

Instructions:

This erratum is currently posted as "Reported". If necessary, please
use "Reply All" to discuss whether it should be verified or
rejected. When a decision is reached, the verifying party
