Thanks for the report, I guess we were confused by figure 50.

Could you be more specific on that? I have found a flow diagram where
the short retry count is incremented first and compared afterwards but
that place does not seem to be the one you are talking about. Could
you direct me to some place in the standard?

BTW the name retry limit suggests that it is the maximum number of
retries not counting the first one which is clearly not a retry.
Moreover setting retry limit to 0 would mean dropping all frames which
is not that intuitive.
