Section 1.1 says:
In JSON, maps are called objects and only have one kind of map key: a string. CBOR uses strings, negative integers, and unsigned integers as map keys.
It should say:
In JSON, maps are called objects and only have one kind of map key: a string. CBOR allows other data types, such as strings, negative integers, and unsigned integers, as map keys.
Notes:
The text as it stands risks an interpretation that CBOR limits map keys to integers and strings; per discussion on the CBOR mailing list, this is not the case.
