Section 1.2, paragraph 7:
>           The EXP field has been renamed to the TC field, and thus all
>           references in RFC 3270 to EXP field SHOULD be taken to refer
>           to the TC field.

  I think the "SHOULD" here needs to be a "MUST" - otherwise it leaves
  the option of not using the new name. (And I don't believe an RFC2119
  term is appropriate here, so it should be a lowercase "must".) Similar
  phrasings occur in Sections 2.3 and 2.4, and they should be changed
  accordingly.
