I can see this as being valuable, but it seems to me that the writing
needs to be clarified and made more exact in many places.  A typical
example is that "civil time" appears in the Introduction and other
places, but it isn't listed in either "Terminology" or "Time scales".
But since the whole point of the draft is making the use of time clearer
and more exact, this is a critical matter.
