Section 6.6.3.1 says:

6.6.3.1. Building and Sending Group Specific Queries

   When a table action "Send Q(G)" is encountered, then the group timer
   must be lowered to LMQT.  The router must then immediately send a
   group specific query as well as schedule [Last Member Query Count -
   1] query retransmissions to be sent every [Last Member Query
   Interval] over [Last Member Query Time].

   When transmitting a group specific query, if the group timer is
   larger than LMQT, the "Suppress Router-Side Processing" bit is set in
   the query message.

It should say:

--VERIFIER NOTES--
I am rejecting this editorial erratum because the original English is perfectly comprehensible. (It is true that it is not very elegant, but the proposed replacement isn't too good either:-)
