Without speaking with my co-chairs, I would suggest you file one or more bugs and use the "proposed edits" as the requested changes.  

I am basing my advice on our previous direction on this item:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html/2010Oct/0322.html

"b) The work to make the these sections technology neutral is not complete.  Bug reports are encouraged in order to enable further progress."

Sean,

Thank you very much for this, it looks great. 2 questions for the group:

	1) Does this look complete? Appears so to me, but we should have a quick verification/sanity check. Anyone else want to take a quick read through?

	2) Thoughts about getting these edits done inside the Draft Spec.
Janina, given that 2 of the chairs are with you in Lyon (and assuming you get this in time), perhaps you could ask for some guidance from them on a next step. Do we simply submit this as a continuation of the initial work request, or file a bug (or bugs?). Also, how can we get this to the head of the queue? It would be extremely useful to get the W3C Spec Text in line with our current position.

Cheers!

JF
