Target CAA Spec (CD 03 Rev 1)

Description: Section 12 has the text:
        For code artifacts related to this specification, the specification
text is considered to be authoritative and takes precedence over the code
artifacts.
This text is in conflict with the updated OASIS TC process, approved
earlier this year, which states that external documents such as schema,
code, etc) take precedence over specification text.

Proposal: revise the wording to:
        Code artifacts related to this specification are considered to be
authoritative and take precedence over  the specification text is
considered to be authoritative and takes precedence over specification
text.
