Security considerations in W3C recommendations

IETF's Internet Architecture Board has published the following
Internet Draft that may be of interest to those who edit SpecGL and
related documents.

Abstract

   All RFCs are required to have a Security Considerations section. His-
   torically, such sections have been relatively weak. This document
   provides guidelines to RFC authors on how to write a good Security
   Considerations section.


As I mentioned previously, it may be a good idea to require "Security
Considerations" sections just like we already require conformance
sections.
