Section 7.6.1.2 says:
If the keyword is not recognised, or if an argument is specified and the keyword does not expect one, a 501 response code MUST BE returned. If the keyword is recognised but the server does not maintain the information, a 503 response code MUST BE returned.
It should say:
If the keyword is not recognised, or if an argument is specified and the keyword does not expect one, a 501 response code MUST be returned. If the keyword is recognised but the server does not maintain the information, a 503 response code MUST be returned.
Notes:
So as to be homogeneous with the rest of the document, lower-case letters should be used for the verb after "MUST".
