Re: Disposition of Comments following Third LC Period

There has been further interaction with those who have commented since 
this e-mail was sent so that an update is in order. See inline below.

The above remains unchanged since this e-mail was sent originally.

There was further conversation between Michael Schneider and Stasinos 
Konstantopoulos who is primarily responsible for the formal semantics 
document. In some respects, the comments from Michael Schneider were at 
odds with those made under a previous call by Peter Patel-Schneider 
[R1]. After a very productive exchange directly between MS and SK, minor 
changes were made to the formalism of the semantic extension in sections 
4.3 and 4.6. MS signalled his agreement with the changes at [R2]

A further comment was made by Dan Connolly [R3], principally concerning 
the test suite. This referred to an earlier comment he'd made (and 
brought it all to the attention of the TAG). His comment highlighted the 
fact that the XML schema, whilst complete and tested locally, hadn't 
been published and that the GRDDL links were problematic.

This was resolved, from a POWDER perspective, as discussed at [R4] which 
has an important reply from Harry Halpin concerning the GRDDL aspects.
