1. Section 5.1, para version:  Grammer issue  s/certificates is
present/certificates are present/

2.  Section 5.1, para version: Correct  to the beginning of the if clauses
should be
        IF (any certificates with a type of other are present) OR
         (any crls with a type of other are present)
      THEN version MUST be 5.

        The other two clauses add nothing to the text.

3.  Section 5.3:  Consider the following text.

      When generating a SignerIdentifier,
      implementations MAY support one of the forms (either
      issuerAndSerialNumber or subjectKeyIdentifier) and always use it,
      or implementations MAY arbitrarily mix the two forms.

        I think that it might need to be updated for dealing with OTHER, but
I don't know what to really say about that.

4.  Section 6.2.1, para 'rid': s/signer's/recipient's/

5.  Section 6.2.2, para 'originator':  s/thereby the sender's public key,
a/thereby the sender's public key, by a/
