Subject: The specification language

Based on our discussion, the chair proposes the following language:

The / operator indicates variation between two states.

>

| Pattern | Meaning | |--------:|---------| | A/B | Primary context A, secondary context B |

>

The specification does not define what "primary" and "secondary" mean. Interpretation is left to the author and reader.

This acknowledges the notation, names the positions, and explicitly declines to define them.
