RE:  OOXML: So what *should* happen now?

Maybe it is considered old fashioned these days, but I'm accustomed to measuring the sufficiency of a quality review not by the number of defects found but by the coverage ratio of the thing being reviewed.  In other words, 3,549 errors from reviewing 20% of a standard may not be so good, but finding 200 errors from reading 100% of it may be very good, if those are the 200 most serious errors.

Have you developed any sense of the coverage of these comments?  My quick glance seems to indicate that Part 5 was not reviewed much.  Same for PresentationML.  I certainly know that my own review never got past the 20% mark for coverage.
