I read over it and section 4.3 "Time and Date Handling" might profit 
from one or two small changes:

OLD:
4.3.  Time and Date Handling

    Protocols often contain data items which are designed to contain
    timestamps or time durations.  It is RECOMMENDED that in all such
    data items be expressed in in ISO 8601 format, as specified in
    [RFC3339].

NEW (suggested):
4.3.  Time and Date Handling

    Protocols often contain data items which are designed to contain
    timestamps or time durations.  It is RECOMMENDED that in all such
    data temporal items be expressed in ISO 8601 format, as specified
    in [RFC3339].


{"end_of_changes": true}

Removing the doubled "in" is a sure thing for me, but if others would 
also subsume "the targeted items" as "temporal items" I do really not 
know and thus happily delegate to the native english speakers on this list.

The motivating sentence reminds me a bit of the significance of sister 
phrases like "Life often is ..." but as it is true (in my experience) 
and if no one else is irritated by quantifiers like "often" I see no 
need to discuss.

All the best,
Stefan.
