Cc/pp S&V conformance section

Dear Lynne and QAWG,


I'm sending you this mail on the behald of DIWG, following the comments
you sent us wrt the LCWD of CC/PP Structure and Vocabularies.

We eventually drafted a conformance section for the spec, i'm attaching
it to this mail. 
Please review and comment it.

However, we still have few questions we were not able to answer in the
group: particularly we have problem with the definition of section 5.4
of what is a conformant consumer:
We defined a test suite in which we defined a set of features to test on
different consumer implementations to check the interoperability.
Foreach test, we are providing valid and invalid profiles to illustrate
it.
However, we are not sure at all that an implementation passing all these
tests could be considered conformant to the spec and say so. Indeed that
just a small set of tests to test interoperability and not to make an
extensive check of implementation capabilities and conformance. So we
have quite trouble defining the conformance criteria for the consumer.
So we are waiting for advices on this point.

Thanks a lot in advance for any help
Stephane
