I've added the following paragraph to the Pre-processing section 3.1:

NEW
          There is a subtle difference in the number representations between
          jCal and iCalendar. While in iCalendar a number may have leading
          zeros, as well as a leading plus sign, this is not the case in
JSON.
          Numbers should be represented in whatever way needed for the
          underlying format.
