I'm not sure I understand what is not specified in '[MS-RPRN] 2.2.3.10.2 
OSVERSIONINFOEX'. After running down the links in that topic, I see they 
contain essentially the same information as the MSDN 'OSVERSIONINFOEX 
Structure' (link shown below, not included in the doc, since we cannot cite 
MSDN content as normative).

OSVERSIONINFOEX Structure

Could you elaborate on what sort of processing you are referring to (beyond the 
implicit matching between the OsName text and OsVersion structured data)?

While the proposed changes remove the outright incorrect information, I don't 
see how they help us populate the operatingSystemVersion attribute.  The 
references to the update, and the rules by which it is processed need to be 
corrected rather than just removed.
