Just experimenting in this sample to see if it will be added
auto-magically by CCing it.

Section 2: Introduction

para 2:
      "The FE model 
      described in this document is primarily an information model, but 
      also includes some aspects of a data model, such as explicit 
      definitions of the LFB class schema and FE schema.  It is expected 
      that this FE model will be used as the basis to define the payload 
      for information exchange between the CE and FE in the ForCES 
      protocol.  "

One could argue that in-fact it  primarily a DM given the definition of the 
schema in this doc takes substantial space; however, i dont
think that makes the other piece less important.
So how about some minor re-wording of the above to make it more explicit? 
Example:

      "The FE model 
      described in this document is an information model, but 
      also includes definitions of the LFB class schema and FE schema which
      fit as a data model.  It is expected that this FE model will be used 
      .................. "

Section 2.4 Modeling Language for the FE Model 

Should we have a s/was/is ? i.e this is not a doc which is capturing
history, rather formally describing the decision made.
Example:
"Human readability was the most important factor considered when"
to:
"Human readability is the most important factor considered when"

As well as 
"XML was chosen as the specification language"
to
"XML is chosen as the specification language"

etc etc
