1) While we appreciate that what you suggest might make reading easier, the way we do it is how W3C specs all do it as far as we know. We do agree about
expanding the text, and will attempt to make that change over time.

No, All specifications don't do it like that.
An example
        http://www.w3.org/TR/qaframe-spec/#about

And using a correct citation scheme is also recommended in the W3C Manual of Style
        7.2 Citation
        http://www.w3.org/2001/06/manual/#citation

2) We agree that semantic markup is a good thing. We do not have a convention for annotating specific document roles at this time. Thanks for the comment.

Will the WG do for next version of the publication?


3) You suggest that we remove things that will not be relevant after a few years. We agree. If there are specific items, please let us know what they
are.

1. Introduction
http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/WD-xhtml-role-20060725/#s_intro

an example of what we call a factual fact.

        [[[
        Note that this work was originally done as part
        of the [XHTML2] activity. It is being released
        in a separate, stand-alone module in order to
        speed its adoption and ease the migration to
        XHTML 2 when that is released.
        ]]]


4) We will make a note somewhere that all examples are non-normative.

That will half solved the issue. How one's know that the prose is an example or not in the text. The problem is that the prose often mixed a requirement and an example in the same paragraph.

Please do separate examples from normative prose explicitly.


5) Agreed.

a grep should on the next version of the document should help to catch the case issue.
And also help to add an appropriate markup
See for example
        10. RFC 2119 Key Words
        http://www.w3.org/2001/06/manual/#RFC

6) Thanks.  We will fix.

Thanks
