TFO authors,

5. Security Considerations

Delete 'not' in the following:
OLD
    We note that although generating bogus cookies
    is cost-free, the cost of validating the cookies, inherent to any
    authentication scheme, may not be substantial compared to processing
                               ^^^
    a regular SYN packet.

6.3.2 Speculative Connections by the Applications
OLD
    While HTTPS adoption is still low,
    it will increase over time (especially given the context of recent
    revelations).
NEW
    While HTTPS adoption is still low,
    it is likely to increase over time.
RATIONALE:
    RFCs are meant to be timeless, and this won't be understood in a 
few year's time.
    Anyway, it's speculative.

Bob
