Section 3.1 says:

It is RECOMMENDED that http:-scheme or https:-scheme URIs are used;
it is further RECOMMENDED that a category URI resolves to a human-
readable document defining the category.

It should say:

The category URI might also be a URL that resolves to a human-
readable document defining the category.  Because domain ownership
may change hands over time, implementations MUST NOT resolve the
URI for any purpose. Resolution is purely for human documentation
considerations. Even then, caution is advised when readers
click on URIs shown in this specification, just as one domain
has changed hands since its original publication.

Notes:

(Reported on behalf of Alfonso Alongi <alfonso.alongi.it@gmail.com>.
Readers are advised to not make use of macedir.org, as the domain has changed hands.

Section 4.1 says:

It is RECOMMENDED that http:-scheme or https:-scheme URLs are used;
it is further RECOMMENDED that each such value resolves to a human-
readable document defining the value's semantics.

It should say:

Each such value might resolve to a human-readable document.  The same
precautions and restrictions about URIs discussed in the erratum to
Section 3.1 apply here as well.

Section 6 says:

(Top of Section)

It should say:

Add to top of Section 6:

Please note that the macedir.org domain used in the names of
the two SAML Attributes defined in this specification has been
taken over by a third party that is not affiliated with the
original owner of the domain at the time this specification
was authored.  As discussed in the erratum to Section 3.1, 
implementations MUST NOT attempt to resolve
those names as URLs, and readers are advised that doing so
will yield no information related to this work.
