Pat,
With reference to your comments.



I slowly came to believe I understood the new questions only after
walking myself thru the following Three part answer:

1) I do think we should enforce an editorial policy of spelling the word
"timeout" in the same way everywhere, since I believe none of my free
.pdf viewers can be asked to search for multiple spellings
simultaneously.  I don't much care whether the blessed spelling is
"timeout" or "time-out" or "time out" or whatever.  I am as yet too
ignorant to know where I would find such a policy documented.  I do
actually see multiple spellings appear in the "7.8 Time-out and Protect
Page (Page Code 1Dh)" of mmc4r02.pdf, even within single sentences.




I find "timeout" used more often in other documents.  I shall change all
references to "timeout".  At least it can be quickly changed if there
are seroius objections.



2) To my ignorant eye, the link to the time-out model remains broken.
Specifically in mmc4r02.pdf I see:

"See the Time-out model for more information on the Group 1 & 2 Minimum
Time-out fields and Group
3 Time out field."



I have rev 2A in progress.  A Katata noted, the link to the time-outs
model is 4.9.  I have put in a cross reference to the heading that gives
us a hot link to that heading.  I shall search for other cases of poor
referencing.

I hope to post rev 2A about 1 week after the MMC meeting on 14 and 15
May.



What I don't know how to do is to find "the Time-out model".  In
mmc4r01g.pdf I am utterly lost.  In mmc4r02.pdf I presume we mean "4.9
Timeouts" of "4 Multi-Media Device Models".



Yes.  Of cours,e that is why a link is preferred.



Maybe by now "broken" is too strong a word.  Maybe only the mmc4r01g
link was broken, and the mmc4r02 link is "weak".  A quick glance now
shows me we do often point a use of the word "see" to something
specific, for example "See Table 588" or "(see 13.18.4, on page 352)" or
....  I like that policy.

3) I personally have not reviewed mmc4*.pdf in detail, so I have no idea
how few/ how many other typographical issues may abound.

Thanks again for clueing me in, Pat LaVarre



Thank you for any additional reviewing that you find the time to do.

Cheers,
Bill McFerrin
