I was asked to take a look at this doc, re-reviewing it after fixes relating to comments on -05 by Lucy Lynch. Unfortunately the updates don't appear to have taken care of many of the formatting and boilerplate issues flagged by idnits. There are still several over-long lines and hyphenations plus the URL for the list of I-Ds is still wrong.
