    Since I'm about to post documents for CR, I went through the file naming
    7section in detail.

    1. For a Working Draft (e.g.), the name is of the form:
         ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/wg/wd/wd-wg10-yyyymmdd.pdf

    But if a Working Group publishes multiple projects, shouldn't "wg10" be
    replaced by something project specific? And does the local file name have
    to include the group name somewhere (for global uniqueness) or will that be
    handled by the PWG standard number assigned later?

    So, if the CR group publishes a working draft called "The
    RepertoireSupported Element" what should I call it:
         ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/cr/wd/wd-cr10-yyyymmdd.pdf
         ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/cr/wd/wd-rs10-yyyymmdd.pdf
         ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/cr/wd/wd-crrs10-yyyymmdd.pdf
    <dmc>
    You're right that we haven't dealt with "subprojects".
    I'd vote for the third option just above, or a slightly-different fourth
    option:
         ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/cr/wd/wd-cr-rs10-yyyymmdd.pdf
    </dmc>

    2. Can we use the http: URL rather than ftp: in references to these
    documents? Seems friendlier.
    <dmc>
    I'm not sure what you mean.
