Hey I was just thinking that the phrase "This primer should prepare the
reader to understand " - would imply that there was a "reader" of this
document already.  :)

  If you *really* want to be nitpicky, no, we should not.  The primer itself
can't do anything except scatter all over the floor if you drop it.  Reading
it performs the task of preparing the reader (at least, we hope it will!).
But if the consensus wants to remove "Reading" from the sentence and leave
it understood, I don't object.

Cheers,

Nitpicking again.  Should we not say "This primer should prepare the reader
to understand....."  .

  We might begin to address Kirk's point by recasting the first sentence of
the introduction:

"Reading this primer should prepare the reader to understand the
specifications that make up the WSDM standard (Management of Web Services
and Management Using Web Services; abbreviated MOWS and MUWS) and also some
of that standard's supporting specifications (e.g., WS-ResourceProperties
and WS-BaseNotification)."

Heather, Bryan,

Question on some changes in section 1.  I noticed in this version, a number
of occurrences of "WSDM" in the Primer Introduction were changed to the more
technically correct "MUWS" or "MOWS".  However, for the reader, the
distinction between MUWS and MOWS is not introduced until section 1.2.4.2.
Doesn't the change assume that the reader is already going to be familiar
with the organization of the specification before reading the introduction?
