Nothing noteworthy.  An earlier version of the doc went through a prior WGLC
and had significant discussion, which resulted in significant changes.  The 
resulting version achieved broad consensus and all subsequent versions since
then have been straightforward and non-contentious.

Unknown.  The spec is applicable to all PCP client implementations,
of which several are known.
