> In summary, the review is looking for
> 
> -          Minor glitches that can easily be fixed without controversy but
> which improve the overall impression that this is a carefully constructed
> document.  For example, this could range from simple typos and broken links
> to a paragraph that was carefully debated and reworded several years ago and
> which no longer makes as much sense as it did during the immersion of the
> debate.
> 
> -          Catastrophic shortcomings that are glaring enough that if
> publicly identified would cause us undue embarrassment and seriously detract
> from the future document.  Note, I want a thorough review but catastrophic
> will have to be proven beyond a shadow of reasonable doubt.
> 
> In addition, you may uncover other issues that will need further
> adjudication.  Please save these for the public review period.
