That's the requirements specification. I was under the impression that
there was also intended to be "another open spec [...] that fully
explains the implementation aspects"
<http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/security/2007-February/000112.html>.

(Like MarkM, I fully understand the investment of time that specs like
these require, so don't take this as criticism.)
