minor comments for CR-xlink-20000703

Here are a few minor comments for your XLink Candidate Recommendation [1].

After clause 1 par. 3, "these characteristics:", the characteristics 
seem to be missing.

In 2.3 par. 2, "the the" -> "then the"

In the illustrations extended-ool.gif, extended-inl.gif, 
extended-arcs.gif, and simple.gif (in clauses 5.1, 5.1.3, and 5.2), 
it might help if "loc" and "rsrc" were spelled out.

Also, the GIFs are black on transparent which in rare cases can be 
invisible. Black on a white background would match the W3C style 
sheet and still be legible for people who have a user style sheet set 
to light text on a dark background.

In the example in 5.1, unless they are acronyms understood 
internationally, I would spell out "teaching assistants", and spell 
out "Grade Point Average" near the first time GPA is used.

In 5.1.5, in the paragraph between the example tables, "that serve as 
starting resource" -> "that serve as starting resources" or, "that 
serve as a starting resource"

In 5.4 par. 3, "crosshatch (#) and percent sign (%) characters." -> 
"number sign (#) and percent sign (%)." (See 
http://charts.unicode.org/PDF/U0000.pdf. Thanks to Martin Duerst for 
pointing this out in XML Base.)

In A.1., the RFC 2396 URI could be IETF's at
