2.  Clarified instructions

    The tokens registered in the Websockets sub-protocol registry created
    by RFC 6445 Section 11.5 are matched using case-sensitive string
    match.  IANA is, however, instructed to decline registrations in the
    registry which differ only as to case, in order to minimize potential
    confusion among different registered versions.  For other useful
    advice on avoiding collision, registrants are encouraged to consult
    the non-normative section 1.9 of RFC 6445.

6445 --> 6455. But otherwise this looks good.
