Don,
I would definitely like the new copy to review. I've already marked so
wording that I think needs clarification in my previous copy.

This one won't make the 16th, Paul. But we've got good accountability
for the past week.  Robert and I spent many hours working on the
Language Spec--see the greatly revised comment record at
http://wiki.oasis-open.org/dita/Fix_list_for_1%2e1_Language_Spec_draft .
The book is building cleanly now, if anyone is interested in an advance
copy to begin looking at the items marked as completed. Remaining are
some open questions that I'll bring up for resolution, and the mechanics
of showing change regions (it will need to be formatted by the IBM
system again in order to show change bars, as DITA OT's PDF tools do not
currently show revisions). But it is also very much improved from the
reviews of Alan and Robert--otherwise it would have been going out with
numerous omissions and errors that had not been fixed (in many cases not
even reported) yet.

Robert also got the page count down below 500 pages (on the DITA OT test
runs) thanks to some reorganization to minimize repetition of common
attribute descriptions.

Did I miss it, or are we still waiting for the lang spec?

It's too late now for a vote on the 16th.
