Section 2.5.3 says:

   The session establishment setup attempt following a NAK'd
   Initialization message MUST be delayed no less than 15 seconds, and
   subsequent delays MUST grow to a maximum delay of no less than 2
   minutes.  The specific session establishment action that must be
   delayed is the attempt to open the session transport connection by
   the LSR playing the active role.

It should say:

   The session establishment setup attempt following a NAK'd
   Initialization message MUST be delayed no less than 15 seconds, and
   subsequent delays MUST grow to a maximum delay of no more than 2
   minutes.  The specific session establishment action that must be
   delayed is the attempt to open the session transport connection by
   the LSR playing the active role.

Notes:

In the 3rd line, "less" is changed to "more".

The intention is to cap the maximum delay. But the existing text implies no cap
essentially.
--VERIFIER NOTES--
This change is a technical change as it changes from no cap to a cap of 2 minutes. This request needs to go via the consensus process (e.g. RFC).
