Boilerplate change suggestion
Hi,

Coming new to
the spec, I found the following boilerplate in STIX difficult to wrap my
mind around:

"The reverse
relationships (relationships "to" the Infrastructure object)
are included as a convenience. For their definitions, please see the objects
for which they represent a "from" relationship."

In particular,
the clause "for which they represent a 'from' relationship" took
several moments to grok and I don't believe that I am alone based on some
discussions.

I would like to
propose the following alternative text:

Reverse relationships
indicate relationships targeting this object by other objects. They are
included here for convenience. For their definitions, please see the "Source"
object. 

Thanks!

Emily
