Error in SMBUs protocol document

Greetings,

I spotted an important (typo) error in the SMBus protocol document located
at:
http://www2.lm-sensors.nu/~lm78/cvs/i2c/doc/smbus-protocol

In the SMBus block process call section:

SMBus Block Process Call
========================

SMBus Block Process Call was introduced in Revision 2.0 of the
specification.

This command selects a device register (through the Comm byte), sends
1 to 31 bytes of data to it, and reads 1 to 31 bytes of data in return.

S Addr Wr [A] Comm [A] Count [A] Data [A] ...
                             S Addr Rd [A] [Count] A [Data] ... A P


It should be a NACK ending the communication, NOT an ack. I checked with the
SMBus specs v2.0, p33 fig 5.21.
S Addr Wr [A] Comm [A] Count [A] Data [A] ...
                             S Addr Rd [A] [Count] A [Data] ... NA P

This error can lead some to error, like it did for me 

Thank you and best regards.
