A better comparison may be 
<http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/p1-messaging-from-rfc2616.diff.html>, 
as it seems Mark had problems running xml2rfc on the "enhanced" XML 
source (which uses extension elements ignored by xml2rfc).

Anyway: I believe we don't necessarily need to decide the #-of-documents 
question right away. If people think that would be useful, I'm willing 
to look into automating the process of splitting up the spec; some 
additional markup + conditional text can make this work.
