Many thanks to Joel Snyder for helping clarify lots of the wording in this document. It feels much cleaner to me. I'm not 100% convinced that technical changes slipped in during those extensive changes. So, I'd really like the WG to review the latest draft. If you have any new concerns at all, please send them to the mailing list before Wednesday May 14.
