I'm not against this proposal, as ripe should follow standards where  
the apply. I like however the idea of a more generic one stating that  
ripe should follow formatting standards and change all current  
documents should one of these standards change.

It seems rather cumbersome to file a change proposal for each and  
every individual document where it basically comes down to a cosmetic  
change following international standards and will prevent us from a  
lot of discussion and the small risk some of these changes won't get  
consensus and we end up with 2 different models.

Groet,
