[TLS] questions regarding draft-ietf-tls-rfc2246-bis-13.txt

Hello,

In section 6.2.3.2. CBC block cipher:

    The encrypted data length (TLSCiphertext.length) is one more than the
    sum of TLSCompressed.length, CipherSpec.hash_size, and
    padding_length.

Should this be:

    The encrypted data length (TLSCiphertext.length) is one more than the
    sum of CipherSpec.block_length, TLSCompressed.length,
           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    CipherSpec.hash_size, and padding_length.

to accommondate for the explicit IV?

Also, there is conflicting text regarding message precedence (handshake 
vs. application data):

In section 6.2.1. Fragmentation:

  Note: Data of different TLS Record layer content types MAY be
        interleaved. Application data is generally of higher precedence
                     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        for transmission than other content types and therefore handshake
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        records may be held if application data is pending.  However,
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

and in 7.4.1.1. Hello request:

        with a no_renegotiation alert. Since handshake messages are
                                             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        intended to have transmission precedence over application data,
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        it is expected that the negotiation will begin before no more
        than a few records are received from the client. If the server

Which text is correct? In RFC 2246, the text is

  Note: Data of different TLS Record layer content types may be
        interleaved. Application data is generally of lower precedence
        for transmission than other content types.

and text to the same effect is also in section 7.4.1.1 of RFC2246.

P.S: with regard to the recent charter changes, is there going to be any 
kind of RFC of TLS 1.1?
