Yes, but please take note of suggestions below.

0. I don't understand the rationale for deciding who is an author.  I believe it is up to the editors, but there are some things that I've helped with here, and I'm not listed (examples: definitions of specialization/alternate, and semicolon syntax for optional identifiers).  I haven't directly written much so wouldn't fight to be included, but at this point I have probably done more than for PROV-O, where I am listed as an author. (I also wouldn't fight to stay listed there but am happy to stay listed.)
 
Also, should some of the authors of PROV-DM also be listed on PROV-N or PROV-CONSTRAINTS, since they were split up?  Having become an editor of the latter only recently, I would like to make sure we credit people that contributed to it.

1. S5, "itself dependen on" - spelling

2.  Table 5 and sec. 5.6.2:  I have trouble reading "memberOf(c,{e1,...,en})" - the elements e1,...,en are members of c, not the other way around.  

Moreover, I don't understand why memberOf needs to be so complex, with an id and attributes, if it is just a "hook" for linking up with other vocabularies that have membership.  Why not just "memberOf(element, collection)"?  This is what I thought we agreed at f2f3.  We could also omit EmptyCollection and the completeness flag.

3.  Figure 7 and 7b: I suggest renumbering, or renaming "Figure 7" to "Figure 7a"

4.  S5.3.5.  "capacity an entity" -> "capacity of an entity"

5.  Example 45.  I am afraid I don't understand how the current definition of mentionOf accommodates the example.  Why doesn't bondle tool:analysis1 rate the two activities Bob was associated with (or the associations themselves) rather than rating (different mentions of) Bob?

6.  In example 46 (which I'm also not sure I understand, but never mind), the bundles in mentionOf are the second arguments, I think they should be third.

7.  I would also suggest that the bundle in mentionOf should be mandatory, not optional.
