mix of SHALL and MUST keywords
------------------------------

                 Key: OBIX-90
                 URL: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OBIX-90
             Project: OASIS Open Building Information Exchange (oBIX) TC
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: ENCODINGS Specification
    Affects Versions: ENCODINGS PR02
         Environment: TAB Review
            Reporter: Toby Considine
            Assignee: Toby Considine


In 5.3, we see use of SHALL keyword, while all other mandatory reqs use MUST. It is better to settle for just one and here MUST, as the preferred keyword for RFC2119 . REQUIRED is still necessary in some cases because serving different grammatical context, but thats not the case of {MUST, SHALL} that are really redundant.
