	NM: Don't know if this was a real design choice. It was based on the need to meet a comment on the previous draft that the examples not be too RPC-ish. I thought this was a part of a plausible document exchange oriented scenario which could be built upon throughout the document.

	NM: I will try. I have after each example provided text on how blocks are handled, but there was a need to provide one place where some of the basic concepts could be explained in plain terms, hence 2.2.

	NM: Agreed. Will do.

	NM: Will change.

>    * Do we need section 5?
	NM: As discussed and accepted at the F2F, I'll put a banner ednote in section 5 and also in the intro stating that this is a temporary placeholder for the contents which at some point will be moved to a W3C NOTE. The consensus was that section 5.1 must be captured somewhere.
