Section 5 says:

5.  Message Formats

   Every Data Channel Establishment Protocol message starts with a one
   byte field called "Message Type" which indicates the type of the
   message.  The corresponding values are managed by IANA (see
   Section 8.2.1).

It should say:

5.  Message Formats

   Every Data Channel Establishment Protocol message starts with a one
   byte field called "Message Type" which indicates the type of the
   message.  The corresponding values are managed by IANA (see
   Section 8.2.1).

   All integer fields in an Data Channel Establishment Protocol message
   MUST be transmitted in network byte order, unless otherwise stated.

Notes:

Submitter's note: The byte order of integer fields in the protocol messages is not defined.
---
Verifier's note: the byte order in the protocol messages is defined, since Data Channel Establishment Protocol depends on SCTP, which requires Network Byte Order (RFC 4960, Section 3). However, since this could be considered an omission that might have been corrected if it had been caught at the time of publication, I am marking it "Hold for document update".
