Yes. The most helpful thing when writing is having other intelligent eyes read it. Those who prepare edits according to some procedure, eg o Text of Spec: Exact quote with address (version, para number, page number) o Problem with Text: precision precision precision (if you don't like the concept, that isn't an editorial issue) o Suggested Fix: Precise text replacement. Send these to the editor and you can almost always guarantee a good response. Do it more than once and you may be drafted into the committee. Don't expect an immediate reply. Sometimes you are sending to someone under a deluge of work and if they manage to send a "thanks" that means they read it. Also, they will receive the same comments for the same sections. They may disagree and they are the editor. The standards world is always looking for a few good eyes.
