Hi Steve, 

sorry again for the late reply!  Anyway, I attach a pdf with
some suggested changes marked, all minor IMHO (red: removed
text, blue: changed text, green: added text, diff style in
verbose sections).  

Please let me know if you want these changes commited, or if
I possibly misunderstood parts (again).  Otherwise, I think
its really ready to go out!

Summary of changes:

  - some formatting (found ^M's which messed things up, some
    spacing, page break, etc)
  - added a number of exceptions, refering their syntax to
    the core spec (e.g. TimeOut, etc)
  - removed some exeptions, too, as error conditions could
    never occur, I think.
  - fixed some inconsistencies (service naming for SAGA
    services was different in attribs and verbose text, for
    example)
  - chaged casing for MUST, SHOULD, etc (was often lowercase
    where it should have been uppercase, IMHO)
  - separated suggested SAGA service names for files and
    directories (a file URL cannot be used for a dir, and
    vice versa)
  - added a 'Implementation MAY use saga context attrib
    names for auth filtering', to clarify that this is not
    required (auth filter generation may imply otherwise).

Many thanks, 

  Andre.
