Thanks for your encouraging words and comments on this very early spec.

IMO, we in regrep would benefit from your keeping track of our progress to keep things
aligned with TP. Note that the main focus for November is Doc management and TPA
management. So yes, I would suggest you subscribe to regreg and help us stay aligned.

I can post reference each new spec version to TP if you think it is appropriate, but then
you could
not participate in the discussions. Your call.

Done in v0.5

I did not yet have a chance to see Scott's UML model so any resemblance is accidental.
Will align better in the future if it makes sense.

Thanks for catching. Pitfall of cut and paste. Fixed

Add footnote disclaimer with suggested text.

Ditto

Again good eye. This could be quite confusing to the reader

Marty, I did not understand above comment. I dont see a problem. Please clarify.

Added note to that effect (minus the good begining part :-) ).
