Use of "may", "must", etc.
Martin,

My suggestion is that by limiting the
extent of normative sections the amount of work to get the normative text
in shape will be that much less.

This is largely a debate about the amount
of work to do.  The more text, the more work.  After our experiences
with Issue 6 in Assembly, I'm minded
to keep the extent of normative text to the absolute minimum.

Yours,  Mike.

I really don't know what to suggest
here. However big or small a normative section is, we will still have to
find alternatives for must, may, should etc.
