Summary: Ready

Two nit-level comments:



I found the formulation 'The key package error content type MUST be 


signed if the entity generating it is capable of signing it' awkward. 


Protocols break if you don't follow a MUST. As written, this says its ok 


to break the protocol. Is this, instead, really trying to say something 


about the thing that's going to evaluate the error content type (like 


"expect a signature unless you're explicitly configured to allow a lack 


of one")?






The word "above" in "Error codes above this point" is ambiguous. It can 


mean either "earlier in the document" or "with numbers greater than this 


value".


That ambiguity may be harmless (it's easy to resolve by looking at the 


referenced document), but if you want to remove it, I suggest saying 


"The error codes listed here with values <=33".
