Process for D3.01
D3.01 speculative editing of 19 editorial comments from LB162
One of these comments (CID 3084) was subsequently transferred to GEN as it actually resolves some technical ambiguities in D3.0. However these speculative edits are present in D3.01, tagged with this CID.
One of the 20 editorial comments (CID 3124) was not resolved, and was transferred to MAC. Having made this transfer, I have prepared a resolution to this comment in one of my submissions.
D3.01 is currently pending review by Bill, Peter and Mark.

Process for D2.0
D2.0 contains the editing of the 264 comments approved in Nov 2009.
We needed to get the edits out as quickly as possible to give maximum time to the ballot itself over the holiday period. So we used an abbreviated review process.
Bill Marshall and Adrian Stephens shared the editing and cross-checked each others’ work
Matthew Gast also reviewed the edits.
Thankyou to Bill and Matthew
