Agree re: binary doc formats like .doc but it is quite well suited for  
text based documents like XML which is why we have been clamoring for  
it to host XACML conformance tests. This of course assumes that  
conformance information be submitted on a per files basis (vs. a  
compressed archive binary ;)

Definitely agree on the need for issue tracking and I believe Oasis is  
working on a solution for that now...
