Neil, thanks for updates. A couple minor followups inline below.

For example, the Naming Guidelines place no constraints upon TC members as to the use or non-use of the substring 'spec' in a filename, whether that file(name) is associated with a designated "spec-track" document or not. Thanks for clarification about the current non-implementation of the NG. Any of my tests are likely to be based upon minimum assumptions -- as in "this is possibly how the system would behave out-of-the-box-without-without-major-obvious-changes". It's helpful to be able to see how KT behaves, even if the test install is in limbo/transition. > > Anyway, we need a presentation to go over the recent changes and the current > status of the prototype.
