This makes me think of how to maintain it. What would be cool is if each 
spec item had an attached blob of code that checks and demonstrates the assertion 
made by the item. Then by switching to the latest and greatest and just re-compiling 
all the blobs you could get a list of items that need to be rewritten. What 
would be very cool would be all of that in a wiki format that automatically 
marks out of date sections.
