Re: more COPY in the place of BIND loops examples

Yes, the revised diagrams are correct.

I believe in Example 1, the binding of C5 named E should be to a new 
resource (e.g., C6), and C6 has a binding named B to C4. 
In Example 2, the two new members of C4 should be new resources (e.g., C5 
and C6), not C2 and C3 (that might have just been a typo).  And the 
binding of C6 named E should be a new resource (e.g., C7), and C7 has a 
binding named B to C5. 

So in each example, a copy never creates a binding back to an existing 
resource, so 3 new resources would be created by the copy.

I see.  (yes, the C2 and C3 was a typo).

So is this correct?
