I think this "could" ==> SHOULD, or at the very least MAY. While I'm at it, in the 2005-7-11 draft: "could be included" in 3.4 ==> MAY; "might be interpreted", "could be taken", "could be regarded", "one could write", "could be used" ==> MAY; "could be used" in 4.5 ==> MAY; "cannot" in 2.2.3 ==> MUST NOT; "can" in 2.2.4 ==> MAY; "cannot" in 2.2.6 items 1 and 3 ==> MUST NOT; "can be split" and "can use the registry" in 3.1 ==> MAY; "can raise objections" in 3.4 ==> MAY; "can be registered" in 3.5 ==> MAY; "can only give possible examples" in 4.2 needs no modal, and ==> "gives only possible examples"; "can use" in 7 ==> MAY; "ought not" in 4.1 ==> SHOULD NOT; "will" in 2.2.1 item 5 ==> SHOULD or perhaps MUST; "will not be added" in 2.2.1 ==> MUST NOT; "will maintain" in 2.2.8 ==> MUST; "will be maintained" in 3 ==> MUST; "will consist" in 3.1 ==> MUST; "no registration records will be maintained" in 3.1 ==> "registration records MUST NOT be maintained"; "will be in a modified" in 3.1 ==> MUST; "will evaluate" in 3.2 ==> MUST; "no new entries will be added and none of the entries will be removed" in 3.2 ==> "new entries MUST NOT be added or removed"; "will be maintained" in 3.4 ==> MUST; "No subtags will be registered" in 3.5 ==> "Subtags MUST NOT be registered"; TYPO: "will lend" in 3.6 ==> "will tend"; "will use" and "will forward" in 3.6 ==> MUST; "will be initialized", "will be relabeled", "will be limited", and "will be sent" in 5.1 ==> MUST; "will include" in 5.2 ==> MUST; "will continue" in 8 ==> SHOULD; Some of these changes may be inappropriate because of the broader context; I haven't fully investigated. -- Winter: MIT, John Cowan Keio, INRIA, jcowan at reutershealth.com Issue lots of Drafts. http://www.ccil.org/~cowan So much more to understand! http://www.reutershealth.com Might simplicity return?
