Re: PLEASE READ: Prioritization questionnaire

Yes, I considered explicitly saying "v1", but that implies that there  
will be a v2, something which always depends on interest level down  
the road.  This is why I said "any specification developed based on  
the work of this group", meaning that any specification that does not  
address the requirement you checked is, in your opinion, incomplete.   
Presumably a v1 would need to satisfy everything you considered  
necessary.

Thanks for all the clarifying questions -- I'm sure others had those  
as well!
