QA WG, This is the list of statements present now in the document. We have to check them individually and propose a rewrite that they are clear and not ambiguous. Example: From: ICS-021-GP: Determine the need for each option. Make sure there is a real need for the option. To: ICS-021-GP: Determine the need for each optional feature. Make sure there is a real need for the optional feature. A volunteer to go through? Reply positively before Wednesday evening. If no answers, I'll do it. ICS-001-Pr: Include a conformance clause ICS-002-GP: Define the specification conformance model in the conformance clause ICS-003-GP: Specify in the conformance clause how to distinguish normative from informative content. ICS-004-GP: Provide the wording for conformance claims. ICS-005-GP: Provide an Implementation Conformance Statement (ICS) proforma. ICS-006-GP: Require an Implementation Conformance Statement (ICS) as part of valid conformance claims. ICS-007-Pr: Define the scope ICS-008-GP: Write simple, direct statements in the scope. ICS-009-GP: Use examples or use cases to illustrate ICS-010-Pr: Identify who or what will implement the specification ICS-011-Pr: Define the terms used in the normative parts of the specification ICS-012-Pr: Create conformance labels for each part of the conformance model ICS-013-GP: define the terms in-line, and consolidate the definitions in a glossary section ICS-014-GP: Re-use existing terms, and don't redefine them ICS-015-Pr: Use a consistent style for conformance requirements and explain how to distinguish them ICS-016-Pr: Explain which conformance requirements are mandatory, which are suggested and which are optional ICS-017-GP: Subdivide the technology to foster implementation ICS-018-Pr: If the technology is subdivided, then indicate which subdivisions are mandatory for conformance ICS-019-Pr: If the technology is subdivided, then address subdivision conditions or constraints ICS-020-GP: Define rules for creating profiles D.2 Optionality and Options ICS-021-GP: Determine the need for each option. Make sure there is a real need for the option. ICS-022-GP: Indicate any limitations or constraints ICS-023-GP: Address the impact of the option ICS-024-GP: Make options easy to find. Use tags to label options. ICS-025-Pr: Address the extensibility topic inside specification. ICS-026-GP: Define the extension mechanism ICS-027-Pr: Prevent extensions from breaking conformance ICS-028-GP: Define error handling for unknown extensions. ICS-029-Pr: Identify each deprecated feature. ICS-030-Pr: Define how to handle each deprecated feature ICS-031-GP: Explain how to avoid using a deprecated feature ICS-032-GP: Identify obsolete features ICS-033-GP: Define an error handling mechanism ICS-034-Pr: Do quality control during the specification development. ICS-035-GP: Do a systematic and thorough review. ICS-036-GP: Write sample code or tests. ICS-037-GP: Write Test Assertions. -- Karl Dubost - http://www.w3.org/People/karl/ W3C Conformance Manager *** Be Strict To Be Cool ***
