Yes, the intention is to include it in LSB 3.2 >or come up with some semi-formal process for requesting compatible changes >to the spec? or putting them in a glass case somewhere and throwing away >the key for a couple of months? The spec can be extended (in the form of 1.x) in a backwards compatible way in the usual manner when there is a need for that. The change required there is to start differentiating between "stable" and "less stable" versions of the same spec: 1.0 is stable and 1.1 would be less so till further notice. >I also worry about the fact that this specification references other >specifications know to be less than stable - or at least, not up to 1.0 >standard. I think at the very least the current spec needs to address that, >and make it explicit about which parts aren't as stable. I guess we could start by putting all external references into a separate "reference" section and have the text of the spec refer there.
