Thanks, Mircea. I will address these issues in my "01" version
of the draft, which I expect to publish within a month.

I attempted to indicate that Expert Systems serves as a model
of "best practices" for LSBPRC, while at the same time asserting
that Expert Systems are not necessarily the omly target for
implementation and use of the model. I'll try a a little harder
to make those points more obvious in "01".

Yes, you're right, absolutely. I intend to include UML-like schematics
and objectclass inheritance diagrams similar to those of the PCIM
and PCLS documents.

As above.
