Section 4 says:
The agent receiving the offer MAY generate an answer, or it MAY reject the offer. The means for rejecting an offer are dependent on the higher layer protocol. The offer/answer exchange is atomic; if the answer is rejected, the session reverts to the state prior to the offer (which may be absence of a session).
It should say:
The agent receiving the offer MAY generate an answer, or it MAY reject the offer. The means for rejecting an offer are dependent on the higher layer protocol. The offer/answer exchange is atomic; if the offer is rejected, the session reverts to the state prior to the offer (which may be absence of a session).
Notes:
You can't reject an answer. When the answer is received the SDP negotiation is completed.
