3.2.  Managing filters using SETMETADATA/GETMETADATA commands
...
  A filter can be renamed by first creating a filter with the new name
  and then deleting filter with the old one.
This seems underspecified. How does the value get copied from the old
one to the new one? Is this the client's responsibility?
Yes.

  If both "/private/filters/values/<filter_name>" and "/public/filters/
  values/<filter_name>" server annotations exist, then the value of the
  "/private/filters/values/<filter_name>" is used when evaluating the
  corresponding FILTER SEARCH key (see Section 3.1).  Otherwise the
  non-NIL value is used.
The last sentence is confusing or redundant. Is it saying: "If only one of
them exists, it will be used."? That doesn't seem worth saying.

Yes.
I've added "(existent)" after non-NIL, is this better?

If it's
saying "Note that a NIL private filter does not override a non-NIL public
filter." that seems worth saying.
Annoying nit: "criteria" is frequently used as if it were a singular
noun. It's plural. One of them is a "criterion."
Yes, good point.

The formal syntax definition
 search-criteria       =  search-key *(SP search-key)
is just fine, because that is a plural usage. But I believe that
almost every occurrence of "criteria" in the text is wrong and should
be "criterion."

== It looks like you're using RFC 3978 boilerplate.  You should update
    this, as the boilerplate described in the IETF Trust License Policy
    document (see http://trustee.ietf.org/license-info) is accepted from 10
November 2008, and will be required from 16 December 2008, 01:00 UTC. Version 1.34 of xml2rfc can be used to produce documents with boilerplate
    according to the mentioned Trust License Policy document.
I am awaiting for new xml2rfc on xml.resource.org ;-).

 == Outdated reference: A later version (-16) exists of
    draft-daboo-imap-annotatemore-14

Fixed, thanks.
