Dan,

I apologize for the oversight of this issue #6. We had already agreed with
Ted to make the sentence clearer by replacing it with the below text. I
just forgot to actually update the draft ;-)
Ted will advise me if this can be done in an RFC editor note or a new
revision:

from:
>If no Processed Tuple (henceforth denoted the "current tuple")
>       exists in the Processed Set, *with*:
>       +  P_orig_address = the Originator Address of the current Packet;
>(*line-break*)
>          AND;
>       +  P_seq_number = the sequence number of the current Packet.

to:
>If no Processed Tuple (henceforth denoted the "current tuple")
>       exists in the Processed Set, *where both of the following
>conditions are true*:
>       +  P_orig_address = the Originator Address of the current Packet;
>(*line-break*)
>          AND;
>       +  P_seq_number = the sequence number of the current Packet.



Best regards
Ulrich
