The 2nd paragraph of section 2...

OLD:

   As a part of its activities, the Internet Engineering Steering Group
   (IESG) votes on "actions". Typically, an action refers to the

   working group, and so on. This memo recommends that the IESG also
   undertake a new type of action, termed a PR-action.

The numbered list in section 2...
