Make that:
That way the "progressive disclosure"
goes: (1) general description, (2) normative description, (3) index of
things that are used/referenced by those descriptions (vocabulary specifics).
The general non-normative description
gives the context for the normative description, and the normative description
gives the context for the tables. I don't think the tables help set-up
the context for the normative description. If people want them, they can
follow the link the first time they're mentioned (at which point they have
at least a little context) rather than having them presented before the
normative description has said where they're used.

Position of resource shapes in resource preview spec (was: Version Control
Commit by sspeiche)

Quick feedback:
I suggest the resource shapes definition goes further down - probably at
the end, just before the appendices. When reading through it in order,
the definition of the properties & classes may make sense at that point
(between the non-normative intro & the normative stuff) as they give
an overview of the data in use, but I think the resource shapes don't make
sense until you see them in use (i.e. in context) in the normative text.
(So a link from the normative text to the appropriate shapes further down
the document would make sense).
Having said that the properties & classes may make sense that early,
in specs where there are more terms than this one then I would suggest
that the properties & classes move down to the bottom as well. So perhaps,
for pre-emptive consistency, we should move it all to the bottom.
That way the "progressive disclosure" goes: (1) general description,
(2) normative description, (3) things that are used/referenced by those
descriptions (vocabulary specifics).
Especially as the vocab terms are part of a vocab, separate from the spec,
in a sense they are external references. (Although we might in that section
define how they are used by this spec - but I expect that would be a summary
of what's in the normative description anyway.)
[I know this is a work-in-progress - this feedback is my contribution to
that progress :) ]
