## Comments

### S3.4.1

* I saw there's an earlier requirement on CAs not to sign malformed
  NCE instances (S3.2) but might there be an addition check here, perhaps:

  "4.1 Perform a bitwise AND operation with the value bit pattern from
   Step 3 and mask bit pattern from Step 4. If the resulting value does
   not equal the value bit pattern the NCE is invalid."

  or something? (or perhaps I've misunderstood)

## Nits

### S3

* "GeneraName.otherName" ->
  "GeneralName.otherName" I expect

* "comprising of" -> "comprising", I believe
