A,

Actually, we did talk about that, and in the latest version of the spec we actually only write out an element once (if it has a matching name and complex/simple type). It has definitely cut back on a lot of the duplication.

I was actually wondering about that, after all I was getting lost just reading the thing :)

Are there any plans to remove duplications from the documentation? For example, the "spPr" element in the PresentationML is used by a large number of entities, but instead of having it documented only once, it gets duplicated for almost every entity that uses it. At the very least, removing duplicates would cut down on the number of pages.

Keep up the good work! The documentation has proven to be invaluable so far and a huge step up from working with the binaries.
