RE: [NSIS] QSPEC document



John et al.,

Isn't the fundamental issue here that a new QOSM _MUST NOT_ break the
future QSPEC and QoS NSLP standards, nor harm the provision of e2e QoS.
The QOSM, or other documents,_MAY_ introduce new extensions - that is why
we have the so-called AB-flags in GIST and the two NSLPs.
