I'll send a note once we have an updated spec.
An updated spec (with '+' change marks in the left column) has been

constitutes clarifications and not a change in the architecture as
originally proposed.
It looks quite a bit clearer, though I do wonder now about the rationale
for making these interfaces Committed given the exceptions carved out
for future projects.
It's a good question, and Mark and I hmm'ed and haa'ed about this a bit
prior to submission. As you know, the long term expectation is that
parts of this configuration can be supplied using a profile that applies
directly to a networking service, and not an intermediary
install-specific service. The idea would then be that the installer
software (and customers who write profiles directly) would transition
away from supplying properties to this install service. At the same
time, being that this is currently the only proposed way for
administrators to supply such networking configuration, the service and
its properties have to be Public and relatively stable. Perhaps
Uncommitted would more accurately reflect the project team's intentions.(?)
