Is there really something unclear about the boilerplate update in Section 2?: Authors who follow these guidelines should incorporate this phrase near the beginning of their document: The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", and "MAY" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 [RFC2119],[RFCxxxx] when, and only when, they appear capitalized, as shown. That is suggesting that we *call* this "BCP 14", and that the citations be to RFC 2119 and to this document. That makes it clear that 2119 applies, as updated by this. > It seems that retaining section 1.1 might be worth it. Perhaps, though I don't think it really has archival value.

If it does, should this document point out this? That's a good point, and I will look into what this might need to say with respect to the XML markup. Barry
