New version of SpecGl

Hi Spec Prod,

The QA Working Group has published an updated version of the
Specification Guidelines, defining what important principles a
specification should follow to ease conformance and interoperability:
http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/WD-qaframe-spec-20040830/

While this is not (yet) a last call working draft, comments from
specifications editors on this document would be more than welcome;
comments should be sent to www-qa@w3.org for proper issues processing,
but I believe discussing the document on this list is also appropriate.

In addition to this document, the QA Working Group has started to work
on a set of more "advanced" topics in "Variability in Specification":
http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/WD-spec-variability-20040830/
trying to help understand and assess the impact of design choices  in
the specification on the future interoperability of the implementations.

Regards,

Dom
