--------------------------------------
Type: Editorial
Reported by: Ben Smyth <resea...@bensmyth.com>

Section: 4.4.2.2.

Original Text
-------------
This fallback chain SHOULD NOT use the deprecated SHA-1 hash
algorithm in general, but MAY do so if the client's advertisement
permits it, and MUST NOT do so otherwise.

Corrected Text
--------------
This fullback chain MUST NOT use the deprecated SHA-1 hash,
except if advertised by the client, in which case it MAY.

Notes
-----
The original text is difficult to read, eliminating the unnecessary "SHOULD 
NOT" seems to make it 
easier.

This erratum is currently posted as "Reported". If necessary, please
