Throughout the document, when it says:
2^(32-1)
It should say:
2^32-1
Notes:
2^(32-1) = 2^31 = 0x80000000, but the intended value is 2^32-1 = 0xFFFFFFFF.
The Registration Procedures for the 'ipn' Scheme URI Allocator Identifiers Registry and the Registration Procedures for the 'ipn' Scheme URI Default Allocator Node Numbers Registry use >=0x100000000 instead of >=0x80000001 as the largest range. Other parts of the text show that 0xFFFFFFFF is the intended value:
* Section 4 says 4294967295
* Section 6.3 says
allocator-identifier: uint .lt 4294967296,
node-number: uint .lt 4294967296,
Also note that Section 3.4.2 shows 0xFFFFFFFFF = 2^36-1 (nine F's instead of eight).
