I'd be glad to adjust the introductory materials once we've done more  
revision of the contents to more accurately reflect the sense of the  
group. I can also agree with making it more clear that this isn't the  
exclusive list of the only design principles anyone will ever follow,  
though I think it goes without saying that no enumeration of  
principles can capture all possible nuances.

I thought you had in some statements that are clearly factually  
inaccurate.
