Documentation error - missing "};"

Hi, I wasn't sure where else to report this. The documentation at:

http://ftp.isc.org/isc/bind9/cur/9.10/doc/arm/Bv9ARM.ch06.html#logging_statement

In the logging section, explaining the Channel phrase, shows the following:

There are four predefined channels that are used for named's default logging as follows. How they are used is described in the section called “The category Phrase”.

channel default_syslog {
    // send to syslog's daemon facility
    syslog daemon;
    // only send priority info and higher
    severity info;

channel default_debug {
    // write to named.run in the working directory
    // Note: stderr is used instead of "named.run" if
    // the server is started with the '-f' option.
    file "named.run";
    // log at the server's current debug level
    severity dynamic;
};

As a person new to BIND, this confused me - I didn't know if there was something special about the channel name "default_syslog" or not that made it so that it didn't need a closing curly brace and semicolan (};).
