Reminder on the apa-admin list that there were editorial changes after the CfC opened, described at https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-apa/2018Jun/0015.html. We discussed these changes in the APA teleconference and concluded that they stretch the limits of allowable editorial changes during a CfC, but don't break them. I apologize for that process, I just didn't manage to make time to do my publication edits before we needed to open the CfC. https://www.w3.org/2018/06/27-apa-minutes#item04 People in the teleconference agreed to go ahead and publish. If you weren't in the teleconference and these edits change your vote, please speak up. No need to reply if your vote is unchanged. I may publish as soon as Friday so need a quick response. If it gets published and major concerns arise, we would be able to republish quickly as it's an ordinary Working Draft.
