Section 2.1.1

"Compound document profiles must specify whether the specialized DOM  
APIs that are defined within the component languages are supported."

- Surely it is up the individual language spects to determine whether  
their specialized DOM APIs are required or not. It would be  
inappropriate for a compound document profile to say that a DOM API  
is not required when the language spec says it is, for instance. I  
request that this be rewritten so as to clarify that profiles can't  
insist on things contrary to the language specs themselves.

Regards,
Maciej
