Due to the updates in the latest version[1] of the draft requirements
document, the references in R300 are wrong.
Current text[2]:
R300 (absorbs old DRs: DR023, DR0053, DR088)
The requirements that XP support the use of layering and be
modular, extensible, and transport independent imply that there
is an architectural design model behind XP. This architecture
and the extensibility framework must be explicitly defined
(DR308 references modularity, DR302 and DR700 reference
extensibility, DR502 and DR800 reference transport neutrality).
In this context, layering refers to both XP's support of XP
modules (the layer(s) "above") as well as the capability of XP
to define services required (the layer(s) "below") for
implementation across a variety of underlying protocols
R300 references DR308, DR302, DR700, DR502, and DR800.
DR308, DR302 and DR502 are now R308, R302 and R502.
DR700 was split into R700a, R700b and R700c. R700a references extensibility.
DR800 was dropped.
I propose updating the text to:
