Hi Brian,
thanks for posting the text.

There was some question as to whether we should use four-octet or
eight-octet lengths for signatures (or some other technique), as one
might want to sign more the 2^32 bytes of data. I've submitted a pull
request[0] to use eight-octet lengths for all signatures.
Although 64 bit numbers are often not easy to handle on small systems it
will be easy for such implementations to hash the required extra bytes
(thanks to Big Endian).
This is an easy and straightforward change. Unless someone objects, I
will add this to the next draft.
Salam-Shalom,
Werner
