[CRISP-TEAM] Comments on section I

[Izumi Okutani]

Thanks Alan. I agree with your suggestion, which is consistent with the
IETF draft proposal as well.

(I note failed to reflect it in the version I sent right after the call,
while you did make this comment during the call - thanks for bringing
this up here)

I'll reflect it.

Agreed. I simply copied the previous text rather than as a preference.
I'll update without apostrophes.
