  I've updated the issues page with the comments on SPF:

	http://www.striker.ottawa.on.ca/~aland/asrg-rmx/issues.html

  I will be summarizing the common elements of the proposals, and
adding that summary to the page.  That will give us a good scope for
the solution, and may hilight further issues.

  I will be out of town on Monday, so I won't be able to do much work
then.  What I would like to see is proposals for an outline for the
final document, with references to sections from the various drafts
which may be used as initial filler for those sections.

  My opinion is that the document should discuss the detailed design
of the system *last*.  e.g. A contrary example is that SPF has a short
introduction, and then gets right into design.  The introductory
paragraphs should be expanded to address detailed benefits and
limitations of addressing the problem statement in the first paragraph
of Section 1.

  We should start off with a statement of the problem, along with the
benefits and limitations of any method of to address that problem.
This will help limit the opposition to the proposal, as it's problems
will be stated up front.

  I hope that beginning the document that way will help avoid some of
the arguments seen on the main ASRG list, for some of the proposals.
