Section 8.4.4.1 says:

Description:

      Cancels an ongoing confirmed commit.  If the <persist-id>
      parameter is not given, the <cancel-commit> operation MUST be
      issued on the same session that issued the confirmed commit.

Parameters:

   persist-id:

         Cancels a persistent confirmed commit.  The value MUST be
         equal to the value given in the <persist> parameter to the
         <commit> operation.  If the value does not match, the
         operation fails with an "invalid-value" error.

It should say:

Description:

      Cancels an ongoing sequence of confirmed commits. If the
      <persist-id> parameter is not given, the <cancel-commit>
      operation MUST be issued on the same session that issued the
      sequence of confirmed commits.

Parameters:

   persist-id:

         Cancels a persistent sequence of confirmed commits. The
         value MUST be equal to the value given in the <persist>
         parameter to the <commit> operation. If the value does not
         match, the operation fails with an "invalid-value" error.

Notes:

This erratum seeks to clarify that <cancel-commit> will cancel all configuration changes arising from a sequence of "confirmed commits".
