I think it is intended to be: MAY implement: which does not really ask for a sentence. Same thing applies to the section right above, where it talks about legacy support; I'd drop the "is" there instead. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: virtio-dev-unsubscribe@lists.oasis-open.org For additional commands, e-mail: virtio-dev-help@lists.oasis-open.org
