That would be fine if changed to reflect the fact that one spec can
specify behavior of more than one CoP. Thus it should be:
The generic name for
*a* group of products that would implement, for the same purposes,
*one role in* the specification, i.e.,
*a* target of the specification. The class of product is
*an* object of the conformance claim.
