All,

Here is something that we would like to share this with all of you so that we 
can get some comments and do the most appropriate way.  

Spec - XKMS, X-Bulk, etc Specification.

Currently, the specs when published they are in a seperate dir and this is 
reflected in the main html doc on www.w3.org/2001/xkms/ .  This is not scalable.
Given that we need:-
	1.  A stable copy of the spec
	2.  A working editor's copy so that people who send in comments can use
		the latest as the reference.

I would like to suggest
	- make a single editors-copy directory.
	- Check specs in that directory and use CVS versioning to update it.
	- when we feel that a particular version needs to be singled out, then
		we make a dir under that date and plop in a copy. (stable copy)
	- with this at all times, the editor's copy will have the latest rev.
		+ we can also run the validation on that and make sure that is
		fixed at all times so that when the time to single one out
		comes, less headache
		+ in most cases, we are only reving up the html document - hence
		only one doc gets updated as compared to html + gifs + css

Do you guys feel that this is a decent solution?
		
Thanks

/Shivaram
