The text scans well. I would have benefited from a stand-alone set of 
definitions for these and subsequent highlighting of the normative terms or 
maybe just highlighting of the normative terms in the text. Terms I'm thinking 
about are:
- Auxiliary coordinate constructs
- Dimension coordinate construct
-  Cell method constructs

I notice a standalone "coordinate construct" used as in  "For a given 
coordinate construct ..." which has me a little confused. Can you review what 
you really mean by construct here? I think there might be some inconsistency in 
use as an instance of a coordinate construct, where "coordinate construct" is a 
data model -- not an instance? 

Another example of this confusion is in:

> The interior ring array spans the domain axis constructs of the coordinate 
> construct

I'm struggling a little bit with the casual reference to polygons as cells -- I 
get it and don't disagree but think the language could treat it a little more 
carefully.

e.g. (note there may be other instances of this)

> If a cell is composed of multiple polygon parts, an individual polygon may 
> define an "interior ring" ...

*If a polygonal cell is composed of multiple parts, it may have holes defined 
by "interior ring(s) ...*

I think there are probably a number of opportunities to break lists that are 
consecutive sentences into bulleted lists for easy of reading -- but I leave 
that to you as the author.

Once these comments have been address (saying no is a fine response), I am 
happy with the changes and don't want to stand in the way of them getting 
incorporated.
