Hi Kim,

This is the first version of this document, so there is no revision 
history.  But I suppose we could just say "1.0 initial version" and that 
might make some people happy.

And as our conformance clause says, there are no normative clauses or 
references in this document.  But I suppose we could add an section that 
says "There are no normative references" and that would make some people 
happy.

Or maybe not.  It would certainly delay this going out for its 2nd public 
review by another month.  That is for certain.

But I think the bigger point is this:  We already submitted this document 
for quality check and it was approved.  It went out for public review.  We 
addressed the comments received.  And now we're being given new quality 
check items that were not raised by OASIS originally, nor were received 
via public comments.  This is not good.

I think we need to acknowledge that the quality check done by TC Admins 
will be imperfect, but there needs to be some cut-off point where we say, 
"You had your chance, now it is time to move on".  Otherwise, what are you 
going to do?  Review a Committee Specification and decide that we're not 
following the latest template and send it back to a CD?  That would be 
ridiculous.   The TC needs some certainty that once it has passed quality 
check that it is safe to go forward, unless there are regressions 
introduced by the TC.
