Comment 1 Samuel Bronson 2010-11-11 02:34:11 UTC
Whoops, I guess I should have looked closer at the section this was to be filed against -- I'm referring to the first sentence of the "Security Considerations" subsection:

> Entire novels have been written about the security considerations that apply to
> HTML documents.
Comment 2 David Singer 2010-11-11 10:28:39 UTC
Indeed, "Entire novels have been written about the security considerations that apply to HTML documents." Since novels are generally works of fiction, perhaps this should say "Enough material to fill several books has been written..."
Comment 3 Ms2ger 2010-11-11 20:53:01 UTC
This proves the existence of novels about this subject: <http://mcc.id.au/2010/novel.html>.
