The two "MUST" above should be lower case.

Proposed Change:

from:

     Microsoft Windows 98 (and later) and Mac OS 8.5 (and later) already
     support this capability.  This document standardizes usage,
     prescribing rules for how Link-Local IPv4 addresses MUST be treated
     by hosts and routers.  In particular, it describes how routers MUST
     behave when receiving packets with IPv4 Link-Local addresses in the
     source or destination address.  With respect to hosts, it discusses
     claiming and defending addresses, maintaining Link-Local and
routable
     IPv4 addresses on the same interface, and multihoming issues.
 
to:

Microsoft Windows 98 (and later) and Mac OS 8.5 (and later) already
support this capability.  This document standardizes usage,
prescribing rules for how Link-Local IPv4 addresses are to be treated
by hosts and routers.  In particular, it describes how routers are to
behave when receiving packets with IPv4 Link-Local addresses in the
source or destination address.  With respect to hosts, it discusses
claiming and defending addresses, maintaining Link-Local and
routable IPv4 addresses on the same interface, and multihoming issues.
