The website is the spec. DMD is the reference instantiation of that spec. TDPL is a re-framing of it. Now, given that none of the three are perfect, discrepancies exist which obviously lead to questions. That's where bugzilla comes in to record and track the queue of issues to resolve among them. Where there's issues, until it's been examined, any of the parties could be at fault. My 2 cents, Brad
