Working Group Resolution (LC-1966):
The clarifying text proposed by the commenter, and based on an earlier
proposal from the group, has been accepted and reads: "The value __NULL
('_','_','N','U','L','L') is reserved as the null Aspect, to be employed
where a vocabulary does not use or distinguish Aspects of the properties
it defines."
