I didn't notice the directories for individual CSD. I agree that this is
perhaps an overkill. I would like the suggest the following:
1) not have individual subdirectories for each CSD
2) include the 'opencsa' part so all SCA specs/artifacts are available
in the same subdirectory.
3) create a single subdirectory called 'sca-springci' that contains all
the springci related artifacts. I don't think 'sca-springci-spec' name
makes a lot of sense since we would have spec, tests, XSDs in that 
directory.
4) create a version-specific subdirectory underneath 'springci' for each
version.

So the URL for the spring CSD01 spec will look as follows:
http://docs.oasis-open.org/opencsa/sca-j/sca-springci/v1.1/sca-springci-spec-v1.1-csd01.doc

In fact, we could probably drop the 'sca' from 'sca-springci' 
subdirectory, making the URL a bit shorter:
http://docs.oasis-open.org/opencsa/sca-j/springci/v1.1/sca-springci-spec-v1.1-csd01.doc

I'll check with the TC Admin to see if this is acceptable.
Please let me know what you think ASAP (even if it is 'don't care'). I
would not like to delay publication because of this issue and would like
to see if we can achieve consensus via email.

Thanks.
