Section Appendix B says:

   ; Actual CBOR data embedded in a byte string, with optional tag to
   indicate so.
 
...
 
   ; Extension block type, which does not specialize other than the
   code/number

...

   payload-block = payload-block-structure .within canonical-block-
   structure

It should say:

   ; Actual CBOR data embedded in a byte string, with optional tag to
   ; indicate so.

... 
 
   ; Extension block type, which does not specialize other than the
   ; code/number

...

   payload-block = payload-block-structure .within
                   canonical-block-structure

Notes:

Various line breaking events cause syntax errors while parsing Appendix B.

--- notes ---

Changed from Technical to Editorial as it seems like this was just a tooling/formatting issue.
