Hi Sharon,
   Thanks for the quick response. Please find comments inline.

OK.

This text sounds fine.

Then why do we have the following error case explicitly listed?

"     If a <stopTime> is requested which is earlier then the specified
       <startTime>, the following error is returned:

          Tag: bad-element

          Error-type: protocol

          Severity: error

          Error-info: <bad-element>: stopTime

          Description: An element value is not correct; e.g., wrong type,
          out of range, pattern mismatch."

The following text occurs in Section 3.2

"The central component inspects each event notification and matches
  the event notification against the set of stream definitions."

At this point I was not aware what a "stream definition" meant and 
how/where it was defined. Personally I would like to push the "Event 
Stream Definition" or a subset of it to Section 1.1 but I do not have a 
strong position on this.

OK. I missed that change.

Thanks
