Section 4.1 says:

For example, if one saw the line "manufacturer" : "flobbidy.example.com",
then all Things that registered with a MUD URL that contained flobbity.example.com in its authority section would match.

It should say:

For example, if one saw the line "manufacturer" : "flobbity.example.com",
then all Things that registered with a MUD URL that contained flobbity.example.com in its authority section would match.

Notes:

Taken at face value it implies somehow a MUD Manager knows about a relationship between two different names flobbidy.example.com and flobbity.example.com in an unexplained way, the correction removes this confusion.
