Definitions in WD8 that begin with a lower-case letter

["G. Ken Holman" <gkholman@CraneSoftwrights.com>]

I note the following definition entries in WD8 
begin with a lower-case letter.  To be consistent 
with other definitions, perhaps they should be 
revised to begin with an upper-case letter.

Fixing these may in fact introduce duplicate 
definitions not found earlier because of case 
differences ... I'll run the duplicate report 
again once all these have been addressed.

To ease the effort in editing the changes, the 
list is ordered alphabetically by module, then by 
row number, and indicates the UBL Name and object class for reference.

Note that this particular report has revealed 
that some definition lines have been messed up, 
as in rows 3 and 4 of TransportationStatus ... 
those two lines of definition do not belong where 
they are.  This was found by chance, and I'm not 
sure how we could find other occurrences of this kind of mistake.

I hope this helps.
