COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks for the work everyone has put into this document (and I understand that
this -02 is coming out of another older document). While the mathematical
aspects of the document are above my head, I took the liberty to put 3 comments
and 1 nit in the hope to improve the quality of the document.

== COMMENTS ==

-- Introduction  --

Why not using the usual format for informative references in this chapter?

The Mersenne Twister is part of the sentence but there are no reference to any
paper. Please add a reference for the seminal piece of work.

"...TinyMT32 represents a major improvement ..." can we have more information
about this improvment? On which aspect ?

== NITS ==

-- Abstract  --

I find it a little surprizing that two authors are cited in the abstract.
