I've a question about this text from the HTTP mapping doc:

4.2.1 <https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-quic-http-13#section-4.2.1>.
Reserved Frame Types

   Frame types of the format "0xb + (0x1f * N)" are reserved to exercise
   the requirement that unknown types be ignored.


For what values of "N" are we talking about? I assume [0,8)? Because,
unless I'm doing the math wrong, if N can be [0,256) (and we're doing
uint8_t math) then that covers all possible values.

Cheers,

Ryan
