Section 4.2.4 says:

   Note: Standards track specifications normally must not depend on
   other standards track specifications which are at a lower maturity
   level or on non standards track specifications other than referenced
   specifications from other standards bodies.  (See Section 7.)

It should say:

Move to Section 4:

   Standards track specifications normally must not depend on
   other standards track specifications which are at a lower maturity
   level or on non standards track specifications other than referenced
   specifications from other standards bodies.  (See Section 7.)

Notes:

The note in §4.2.4 (Historic) applies to standards track documents in general, and not specifically to Historic documents (which are not in the Standards Track) as it seems by including it in that subsection.

The text should be moved, unchanged (except for maybe removing the leading "Note:") to be the last paragraph in §4 (before the start of §4.1).
