The phrase “millions of documents” in this section is an unsupported assertion and also irrelevant in the context of a standard proposal.

Remove the assertion.

Part 4, Section 6.1

Proposed Disposition of DIS 29500 Comment IR-0050 (Modified: 2007-12-20) Agreed; the reference to the existing corpus of binary documents should be done in a consistent manner, because it’s one of the foundations of this standard. The following change will be made to Part 4, §6.1, page 4,343, lines 3­8: VML is a language for defining graphical objects in cases where DrawingML does not apply, such as text boxes and shapes in WordprocessingML documents and comments and controls in SpreadsheetML documents. This namespace provides the base elements and attributes for defining shape primitives. Other VML namespaces define elements that layer on information beyond the baseline graphical definition. To maintain backward compatibility, all VML namespaces defined in this specification maintain the legacy namespace structure already used by the existing corpus of binary millions of documents.
