Then you disagree with UAAG's usage of "well-formed" versus "valid", when 
applied to conformance claims?  And you propose that QAWG should use 
"valid" to mean the same thing that UAAG uses "well-formed" to mean?

I like UAAG's usage.  Perhaps more important, I don't see any reason for us 
to redefine terms that have been in use in REC UAAG for some years, and 
whose definition is not clearly wrong or unreasonable.
