Use of "may", "must", etc.

[Bryan Aupperle <aupperle@us.ibm.com>]

I believe all of the TCs have adopted
use of RFC 2119 keywords in uppercase only and to not use the keywords
in lower-case form at all, using synonyms when necessary.  We have
started scrubbing the C++ spec to eliminate use of "may", "must",
etc. and found that some rather awkward language can result   Has
anyone else started this exercise and how are your results?
