Version -10 says

    More formally, pseudo-code for the signature algorithm is:
 body-hash =  hash-alg (canon-body, l-param)
 data-hash    =  hash-alg (h-headers, D-SIG, content-hash)
 signature    =  sig-alg (d-domain, selector, data-hash)

    where:

    body-hash:   is the output from hashing the body, using hash-alg.

Shouldn't it say

    More formally, pseudo-code for the signature algorithm is:
 body-hash =  hash-alg (canon-body limited by l-param)
 data-hash    =  hash-alg (h-headers, D-SIG with body-hash)
 signature    =  sig-alg (d-domain, selector, data-hash)

    where:

    body-hash:   is the output from hashing the body, using hash-alg.
       It is set as the value of the bh= tag in D-SIG for computing
       the data-hash.
?

Sounds technically correct.  +1
