Section 3 says: 

   The community attribute values ranging from 0x0000000 through
   0x0000FFFF and 0xFFFF0000 through 0xFFFFFFFF are hereby reserved.

It should say:

   The community attribute values ranging from 0x00000000 through
   0x0000FFFF and 0xFFFF0000 through 0xFFFFFFFF are hereby reserved.

Notes:

Since community is a 32-bit value, 0x0000000 should be 0x00000000 to remove confusion.

Verifier note: It might be useful to tidy this when the text is updated, but the text is correct and there is no possibility of confusion if you read the whole sentence.
