Line 7:
: ''VLQ octets are arranged most significant first in a stream.''
Which doesn't make sense as the least significant octet has to be sent first so that its eighth bit can be sampled to see if there will be another octet or not. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 15:14, 15 October 2010 (UTC)
:I think, in a '''mixed data''' stream for storage or transmission, the VLQ has to be like a big ending number , so that the least significant octet act as a terminal, if no other information telling the length of the VLQ. If the stream contain only VLQ, the least significant octet can sent first. [[User:Dingowolf|dingowolf]] 16:27, 15 October 2010 (UTC)
