Alfred,

Thanks much again, good catch. As you correctly identified, in SI the
abbreviation for prefixes denoting factors greater than 10^3 are uppercase.

RFC Editor,

I think this erratum needs to be moved to Verified state, but I also
think it (being a typo) is an Editorial and not Technical erratum.

Thanks,

-- Carlos.
