Anyone have a good definition of API (e.g., from a computerese
dictionary)?

Meaning Technical Committee, right?  Question:  if the
abbreviation TC is expanded in the glossary as "Technical
Committee", does that latter need to be defined?  Or were you
just suggesting to give the expansion of the abbreviation TC?

Or... should we just expand it at it at it's six occurrences in the cover
pages, and forget about it in the glossary (it appears nowhere else in
the document, as far as I can tell).  I think I favor this, as TC
isn't really a term relating to the technical content of 
WebCGM.

That's actually in the glossary.  The glossary needs to be put into
alphabetical order, which I'll note.

By the way, the final text will observe one of the W3C Accessibility
requirements -- in the XHTML version, all occurrences of abbreviations
and acronyms will be marked up with <abbr> or
<acronym>.
