Abstract
    This document specifies the conventions for using the Camellia
    encryption algorithm for encryption with the Cryptographic
    Message Syntax (CMS).

1. Introduction

    This document specifies the conventions for using the Camellia
    encryption algorithm [CamelliaSpec][CamelliaID] for encryption with
    the Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS) [CMS].  The relevant object
    identifiers (OIDs) and processing steps are provided so that
    Camellia may be used in the CMS specification (RFC 3369, RFC 3370)
    for content and key encryption.

1.1 Camellia

    Camellia ....(snip)

1.2 Terminology

    The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHOULD", "SHOULD
    NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document (in
    uppercase, as shown) are to be interpreted as described in
    [RFC2119].

If your intention is this text, I want to rewrite in this way.

I sent this mail since I wanted to register this OID.

Best regards.
