By the way, guys - how are people supposed to comment on spec?

Several people failed to figure it out and just
sent me bits of text copy-pasted from pdf,
really hard to read.

Transcribe "on page X line Y ..."?
Could be possible if we at least numbered lines.

Chet - is this allowed in specs?

It's still pretty painful.
Use some tool to add notes to PDF?
I don't know of one, and then it's still hard to find
and read the notes.

I think for next draft revision we should
make more public our svn tree location and location
of source in zip file, and tell people how to comment
on tex and how to subscribe to the mailing list
if they want to.

Chet - any objections?
