The old stuff I think is still valid, but would be nice if somebody took on themselves to update it. I think the spec and the manual are different documents, for different audiences, so having separate spec would be a good thing. However, we should have clear demarcation which parts applies to which version and which parts are missing. -- Stas Malyshev smalyshev@gmail.com
