I agree it's important to address issues raised during review. You could 
actually edit and insert some of your responses in the DIP itself. Don't 
forget, the frame of mind is to translate from "DIP plus explanatory 
forum discussion" to "everything goes in the DIP". When in doubt, state 
in the DIP.

As this is the feedback thread, I've only focused on things that could 
improve the DIP, to the best of my ability independently on my take on 
it. I may add a post in the discussion thread.

Thanks for your work!
