Isn't there a naming inconsistency in the algorithm description as it now stands (at 05:59:44 UTC)? The box diagram and the following paragraph refer to fields "next" and "owner", but the next paragraph after that talks about "next" and "current". I assume "owner" and "current" refer to the same thing?
