Am I right in understanding that we decided: 1) to refer to fixed versions of documents that we cite; 2) to split references sections into normative and informative parts; 3) to ensure that references are uniform throughout all of our documents? Regarding the last point, we should figure out a suitable mechanism. We could create a single shared bibliography, but this might be difficult w.r.t. point 2 above (not sure if all documents will have the same normative/informative split). We could create a "shared" wiki document for each citation and include them in the usual way, but this might be a bit heavyweight. Comments and/or other suggestions are welcome.
